Finishing the KTM

Mostly, I remem­ber the last few kilo­me­ters of KTM. Because I’ve never been so relieved that it was done. But then I say that after every run :-) Well, I prob­a­bly wasn’t the only one : with the sun shin­ing in all its glory : at times dur­ing the 3 hour affair I could feel it […]

The KTM is upon us…

The Kaveri Trail marathon is finally here (it also came much sooner than I thought!). On the scary side, I haven’t run in more than two weeks. My travel put my sched­ule out of order and I’ve been rather lazy in the morn­ings too. So I’m not in the best of con­di­tions, but then I […]

Adventures with my hero

Every­one needs a hero, right? So here’s a small story about mine. So, the hero’s been around for a while, but never really got­ten a taste of adven­ture. Of what life can be like : on the road. I’ve been mean­ing to take him out on a jaunt to expe­ri­ence real life… but the timing […]

Travelling in Fort Kochi

Into day 2 of my Fort Kochi break. Chilled out a lit­tle on day 1 and walked around a bit. I had a list of things on my agenda but decided that I wasn’t going to push myself! Today, I had a few inter­est­ing con­ver­sa­tions includ­ing one with some­one who has been involved with maintaining […]

Lazy lunch at La Terrazza: the review

Kora­man­gala is begin­ning to buzz with activ­ity : lots of new restau­rants which means we don’t need to go too far in search of good food and a chilled out time!

Health hiccup and more running and cycling!

So I took myself to the doc­tor in office today since I needed a med­ical cer­tifi­cate. And then I find out. Every­thing else is fine with me — no aller­gies, no fits, no weak­nesses — except one small prob­lem… “Your BP is a lit­tle high,” he says. (130/90 for those who can deci­pher the numbers). […]

Forever Jung!

We had passed this lit­tle town called Jung (also writ­ten as Jang) on the way to Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh and all of us were quite taken in by this quaint and charm­ing lit­tle place. We made a deci­sion to revisit it on our return journey.
