12 months 12 marathons

Sabine and some other runner friends in bangalore have pledged to do this. I am planning to do so in Mumbai. the idea is to extend one long run in the month to a marathon distance. this should be a good groundwork for those aiming to do the Comerades in 2012. please register your interest on this board and also suggest the favoured venues in or near Mumbai to do this. it goes without saying that some of the organised races during the year will form a part of this.

 

Thanks,

Amit

wow sounds great, one long run in lonavala every month is also ideal, one can do almost 40 kms there

I will surely join for a few, but full 12 might be a challenge. with auroville already lined up, i will start the year with 2 in 2.

Great Amit....

i also was thinking on the same lines..count me in..although there are many events to keep 1 interested...lets see how this plans out..

I am on track for the 12m12m plan as did SCMM FM in JANUARY and doing AUROVILLE in FEBRUARY...

so now need to look something up from March onwards.

Sounds nice. Needless to say the ones from Mar - June will have to have locations like Lonavala and Matheran. I am not sure I can join but will do so whenever your run date allows me.

Same here... Dont think am prepared for 12 in 12 Months. But would definitely join you whenever I can.

@Dan- We would like to keep the dates which fall on Saturday off so that should not be a problem.

@Amit: Thanks for this initiative. Will join as many as I can - depending upon work and how well the body can take it.

@Amit - best of luck for your attempt - I might join in for a few (not 42, but try to do a 32 every month). In case your attempt falls on the first sunday of the month, then you can join in Milton's planned Bandra-NCPA (though you can start from Borivli or from wherever it totals 42 kms upto NCPA) run.

Hi,

I run in Chennai. SCMM2011 is done in Jan11. Hope to complete Aurovilee as well in Feb'11.  After watching so many 12M Tees @ the SCMM Expo, wondering why not a Full in every month of 2011?

Let us see.

Regards 

Ramani

@All, had spoken to Sabine during GRM and she mentioned that few participants in the 12m12m initiative will be running FMs and HMs on alternate months. So folks who are unable to run FMs every month can still be a part and run alternate FMs and HMs.

 

Happy running!!!

Venkat.

All the best Amit. I was anyway planning to do a 30 km every month, apart from March-May. Hopefully I can join for an extended 30k runs.
