So, in a few weeks time, it will be time to visit Mumbai!
The Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon is on January 18.
I am hoping to run into a few bloggers and familiar faces on the race day. If you’re in Mumbai during the time, do come out and cheer. There’s the dream run too (6k) where you can run/walk and I’ve asked some friends to participate in that at least. Quite a few of us from Bangalore will be travelling for the event.
In my 5 years in Mumbai, I was never even aware of the marathon and it’s actually quite ironical that I will be travelling all the way from Bangalore to be a part of it now! But, that’s life… always full of surprises :-)
Anyone planning to run? Or coming out to cheer? :-)

I photographed the marathon last year and intend to do the same this year too. But hopefully get some much better shots.
If you’re interested see my photo collection.

Happy new year !!! Been a long time. Good to see you have taken to running with a real zeal.

Got your reference through my sister in law’s (swatisani) blog.I was staying in Colaba (Navy nagar)for 3 years and even did certain arrangements for aerial photographt as of my official duties. But no marathon - too lazy I guess. Plus the things closest to you are probably furthest from your heart. My wife will vouch for it :-)
