Training for the Bangalore Ultra 2008

The Bangalore Ultra is just two months away. And i started training for it only today. Worse than last time. But better late than never.

I have worked out a schedule as a Google spreadsheet. I'll keep updating on my progress as well.

Caution: My schedule is a very quick ramp up, and not advisable for anyone, especially not newbies. Its just a courageous mad rush!

Here's the link:

The "should" in there is as directed by http://www.scrunners.org/ultrasch.php

I'm open to others suggestions on the schedule. And also if anyone wants to sync up.

RFL ONV run

I ran my first official RFL run. The location was Hessarghatta this time, which will be the racetrack for the Bangalore ultramarathon as well. The route was very picturesque. I have missed out on taking pictures in one of the best portions of the race track - the woods - where i was so focussed on running (or limping on my sore-kneed second lap) that i forgot that i am a shutterbug.

ONV (Our Native Village) was the host for the RFL run, and will be for the ultra as well. Special mention has to be made of the 'completely natural' aspect of everything at ONV.
