Done! Posted on December 17, 2007December 17, 2007 A gruelling 26 kms, on a course that had a combination of several uphill / downhill combinations and took me exactly 4 hours to complete! A rather scenic place to run in – so that made things much better! And organisers that had it all right and planned everything efficiently and perfectly. (Unlike the Bangalore International Marathon, which I hear didn’t do very well on that front). Finally, after weeks of anticipation, completed my first ever long run. Am super thrilled and a longer post will come up soon!

@ Jace: At our Native Village, Hesarghatta. That was the starting point. There was a 6.5 km track up and down. @ Prasoon: thanks! @ balu: thanks so much! @ Radman: i have nothing against it. so i’m definitely not telling him, plus he did a 26 in 3 hours. even with long pants, it might not be possible for some people 🙂 @ Ajay: thanks you! @ Srikanth: yes, finally! you must! @ Srikanth: yes, lots of dreadful stories at the bangalore marathon! we were having a great time at hesaraghatta in the countryside running between fields and forests. 🙂 Reply
