Lessons Learnt From a Half-Marathoner

[irq2]

Thanks for the wishes, guys!

The half-marathon was to start at 6:30 AM. Being the lazy bum that I am, I woke at around 5:15 AM, and reached the venue at 5:55 AM, just in time for the full marathon kick-off. I had rice the previous night (like premshree, I couldn't manage to eat pasta), but did not have anything on Race Day

For someone who hasn't practised, awesome timing!

[irq2]

Thanks :)

I met this guy from Pune who completed it in 01h50. He said this was his second half-marathon, and had practiced well in advance for it. So, next year, I'm looking forward to a much better timing.

Next time I hope to do the half-marathon. :-)

(Well done Sandeep!)

Chafing against fabric. In news from other regions, some trekkers oil their thighs before setting out. Some others positively waddle back.

Thanks :)

Hmm, now that you mention it... chafing must've been the cause :-D

[premkudva]

Congratulations Sandeep! Good job well done. I would have died thinking about it;-)

* My left nipple is hurting. A lot.

? Does running cause this?

[irq2]

:)) Nope, as beerbal said, it must be due to the chafing against the fabric.
