Story
For my daughter Alina, who loves to read books and many other children like her, I am running Cambridge Half Marathon on 4th March 2018 and raising money towards buying story books for the students of the school run by CC.
My last few professional runs were -
Marlow 5K (Year 2008) - 0:42:30
Airtel Delhi Half Marathon (Year 2008) - 2:31:10
Cambridge Cambourne 10K (Year 2011) - 01:08:53
My target is to finish 'Cambridge Half Marathon' in 2 hours and 20 minutes.
I am running and I am running hard :)

I have got quotes from a London bookstore and will be ordering the books by end of this week.

6 years agoAfter 2 weeks of flu back to training, managed 8.5K in an hour, target to run to be able to comfortably run 11K before the actual day. Someone said if you can do half of it on normal days you will manage the distance. Doing treadmill to pick up pace, road run to adapt to actual conditions and weather, and swimming in between days to relax the muscles.
