10 K

Email I got today:

Dear Abhijeet,

Congratulations!!!

Procam International Ltd. takes a pleasure to confirm your entry to the Sunfeast World 10K Bangalore to be held on Sunday, 31st May 2009.

Details of your confirmed entry are as under:

Race Type : Open 10k
Running Number :1106
Reference Number: 126
Birth Date : 1981-03-30
Gender : Male

Your Acceptance Letter will be sent to you shortly with all the details related to collection of running number.

I am unable to decide what time I should target for this 10 K. I have not put in the kind of training I would have liked but I think a time of 55 mins or under is realistic. Maybe.

Smooooth

I've put on a few kilos which are more of an irritant than anything else. My flexibility and strength is down which is a big concern. But today I had a simply brilliant, fluid and smooth as honey 5 K run. I purposely slowed the pace to about 10 K/hour and around the 4 K mark I couldn't believe the way I was floating. What a sensation. You should try it some day :-)

For now I have 6 weeks for the Sunfeast 10 K run on 31st May. The shape I am in right now, I would probably have a dismal run if it was next week but 6 weeks is about enough time if I am able to put in about 20 more runs like I did today.

Love it.
