First 7 miler of the year..
I finished my first 7 miler of the year yesterday.. And should say, it was one of the best performances for me... finished it in about 1.5 hours!
It was on the Oracle trail.. I had my first beyond 5 miler at the same place last year as well... And the best part yesterday was that I could run continuously except for some short water-stops.. this is totally improved from last year when I had to walk a major part of the longer miles.. knock knock!
Some aches and pains, but nothing compared what I had to go through last year.. thats such a relief..!! My only wish is to reach the start line (relatively) injury-free and finish the half-marathon in under 3 hours. Amen!!

Season 2 has begun!!
Itz season 2 of my marathon experience... continuing my training with Team Asha...
I did not run at all after the Silicon Valley Half Marathon last year - took complete rest and allowed my body to refresh itself in the winter.
Then I ran the Asha 10K Spring Run in March early this year. That was good. And end of April, I started my second season with the team. The team, coaches, mentors are as awesome as ever. And I seem to be doing pretty well too.. No real pains so far... which is great!
Hoping to run the San Francisco Half Marathon on Jul 26, 2009. And then, I will decide which full marathon to run. My goal is to get to the start line injury-free and have fun all along while raising money to support one of Asha for Education's projects in India.. That reminds me.. I need to select the project too.
Anyways, to Team Asha... may you fulfill more dreams and help create educated children and inspired citizens!!
