Hello All,
I am running for mumbai marathon on jan 20th. due to shortage of time, I have decided to run for half marathon and do it under 2 hrs. So the first task wast to get a new running shoes as the old faithful RBK shoes are completely worn off. So this time I took a advice of fellow runners and headed out to buy adiprene supernova by adidas. and just to give myself the rocky balboa feel bought cap, sweat shirts and all. So today we (my flatmate jasmine shah) kick started the practice for half marathon. Goal is to do 5 kms stretch from cantonment railway station to mekhri circle and back. and we were on the roads by 5.35 am without any issues. I call it first day enthusiasm. There is slight uphill and downhill along the course and whole lot of traffic.. all the while I was cursing traffic which was heavy at 5.30 am. (thought running in my mind "mar jaao kamino chain se duadne bhi nahi dete ho sabre saber")
and we were back in 35 mins. in the end I was bit tired but totally worth. but wait a sec, I feel some uneasiness while walking. and as expected I can feel the blisters. well I paid 4.5k for the shoes and still the same old story. thats all for day one.
Update: I finished half marathon in 1 hr 53 mins :)
