Ran away
“Some run races, some run away from races.Those who run win a prize, those run away make somebody pay the price.” A creative written for a 15-word brevity contest based on the prompt ‘run’ titled ‘Ran away’.
The last sunrise
“As I ran past the truck at the break of dawn on Sunday, I heard the sound of chickens clucking. In a truck were cages stuffed with these birds, parked out a chicken shop. Did they knew that this would be last time they see the glorious sunrise? Were they saying bye to me? I ran faster pumping adrenalin, were they doing the same to stay alive?

Date with nature
To all the Malnad Trail Ultra participants, enjoy the ‘Date with nature’. All the very best guys. Sadly will miss it, though my heart will here tomorrow.
runner dervish
Last Sunday I ran the 24hour stadium run at Kanteerva Bangalore. With only minimalist training consisting of a few HM runs/walks, I relied on mindfulness and preventive stretches. And it worked! A new personal best at 139.6 kms and fit as a fiddle at the end.
Enjoy the experience as a poem “runner dervish”.
Noxious run
Run for Green Energy event on the World Environment day was held at the pristine campus of GKVK with 1000s of trees spewing Oxygen and lovely birds chirping. Outside the NCBS campus ~100 petrol/diesel cars quietly rest after discharging noxious gases ferrying the participants. Jai sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#136)
Rainy season
The weather of namma Bengaluru is brilliantly suited for long distance running training. The rolling terrain and climbs of namma Bengaluru outskirts is great for cycling training. In the rainy season, namma Bengaluru also offers great open water swim training on the roads. See, triathlon training is sorted out here. Just get a mouth mask in addition to a face mask and you are good to go. Training the sillycon way. #sillyconCity (#114)

He wanted to get into running. He bought colourful shoes, Garmin, DryFit, Gels, and learnt all the terms. Now all he has to do is get into the practice of running. Some amazing people in sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#83)
The magic of trail ultra
The weekend before last is when I did my 100KM run at Hennur Bamboo Ultra. Keen on experimenting with the idea that I should be able to get up and run this distance, I did low mileage training with just one run of 43KM a week before the ultra. And it did work. As usual the magic of Hennur trail happened in the cool night. With Armin van Buuren’s “A State of Trance 2019” music belting in my ears, I was in a flow doing a fast paced non-stop walk (~8:30 pace) of 22KMs.
Long trail runs are magical and here it is as “The magic of trail ultra”.
