Action in the Skies

By ⋅ February 13, 2009 ⋅ 5 comments

The Aero Show is on in Ban­ga­lore right now and it’s worth a visit. I’ve never gone for the air show and I am glad I made it this time. The pyro tech­nics of the air­planes made my heart stop for a moment. Lots and lots of dif­fer­ent kinds of planes on dis­play and the […]

Running in Mumbai

By ⋅ January 26, 2009 ⋅ 11 comments

The Mum­bai run was an excit­ing event for me. The reg­is­tra­tions start way in advance so there is quite a build up over the months. It was another story that I wasn’t too pre­pared and hadn’t put in any long runs in the month prior to Mum­bai. But I was excited, never the less. My mom […]

Looking forward to…

A quick update… It’s been a hec­tic few weeks. My blog looks a lit­tle for­lorn. I have a tea story from Cochin in my head and I haven’t man­aged to post it. Besides run­ning a 5K in the women’s cor­po­rate rally at the Mid­night Marathon on Jan 9, I haven’t really done any long runs […]

Mumbai calling!

By ⋅ January 3, 2009 ⋅ 12 comments

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) […]

Back from Goa!

By ⋅ December 23, 2008 ⋅ 14 comments

Just back from a week long cycling trip to Goa. We cycled over 60 kms every day over 5 days. The weather was hot and steamy. The ter­rain was up and down and mostly unpre­dictable. We crossed beaches, lit­tle towns, ham­lets, green fields, min­ing areas, hills, plains, forests and wildlife sanc­tu­ar­ies. We saw Goa like we’d […]

Mumbai

By ⋅ November 27, 2008 ⋅ 8 comments

I was out last evening and it was pretty late when I was catch­ing up on my tweets when I saw a post about blasts in Mum­bai. After that, there was no sleep for a cou­ple of hours as I was fol­low­ing the reports com­ing in from dif­fer­ent folks. It’s been numb­ing to say the least. […]

Scenes by the sea

By ⋅ November 3, 2008 ⋅ 26 comments

I spent 3 days in Fort Cochin dur­ing the month of Octo­ber. It was a most relaxed trip where I walked by the sea, observed the fish­er­men, had some gor­geous food and dis­cov­ered that even on a small lit­tle island you can keep your­self busy… For me, it is prob­a­bly one of the best times of […]

Finishing the KTM

By ⋅ October 23, 2008 ⋅ 12 comments

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 […]
