Now that I have completed Mumbai Half Marathon, so what was next. I was running regularly and also doing my weekend long runs. During the next couple of months after Mumbai Marathon I participated in some events conducted by Decathlon Stores. One was Duathlon of 15 kms, its a 2 member team event where one would cycle and other should run and switching between cycling and running was allowed. I was able to convince one of my friend to cycle me as I thought of running. It was a good event and I remember it completing it in 1 hr 38 mins. Also there was 10 kms run which I completed in 1 hr 5 mins.
TCS 10k team announced the registration and event date for the 10 kms run. Event was scheduled on 27th May 2012. I was among the first few to register for the event. Its my second participation in this event after Majja run in 2011. This time I also wanted few of my interested friends to run along with me. I was successful to convince few of my friends to participate. Anup, Irfan, Shashi and Nikhil registered for the event. Since my Mumbai Marathon results where taken during registration I was put in line up section B and my friends where in line up section C. My running number was 1002.
Race was good but since it started late in the morning at 7 am, Sun started up to show up around 7:30 am which effected my running tempo. This was definitely not an excuse but my preparation lacked running under Sun. Although I wished to complete the race sub 1 hr time, missed it but 4 mins !!. Here is my race timing. I was bit disappointed but its all part of the game. I was happy to find my friends completing the race too. We all had good time after the race. Here is the race certificate. Couple of photographs of mine on the run.
With 3 months to go I was attempting my 2nd Half Marathon in Hyderabad.
