SCMM 2012-Run for our National Integrity.

Posted on January 22, 2012 at 15:30 15 Comments

Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon 2012 (SCMM) of 15th January, 2012 will always be remembered by all the Gorkhas. It was the day, on which 16 Gorkhas ran Half marathon (21km), 3 Gorkhas ran Dream Run (6km) and a Gorkha Girl ran Full marathon (42km) to do our self-expression that ‘We are Gorkhas and proud to be Indians. Jai Gorkha, Jai Hind’. We all ran for a reason.

 

I did Landmark Forum in 3rd Weekend of June 2011. It was only three days…

Bangalore Ultra Marathon 2011- 7km

Posted on November 14, 2011 at 23:00 27 Comments

I am very proud of myself for running 75km on 13th November, 2011 in Bangalore Ultra Marathon. I love the tag line of Bangalore Ultra Marathon- ‘Its tough, are you?’ Last year I ran, 50km in Bangalore and I said, ‘Yes! I am tough too”. This year I ran 75km and I want to say that I am tougher than Bangalore Ultra Marathon ;-).

 

It took 12hrs 54mins for me to cover the distance of 75km. For Ultra Marathon of 75km,…

Nirvana weekend with friends.

Posted on August 8, 2011 at 15:44 22 Comments

My Nirvana weekend started with Girls Only Run (GOR) on Saturday, the 6th of August, 2011, in Juhu Beach.  The GOR of 6th August was just a week ahead of our Independence Day that is why we had decided to tie a tricolour Stole /Scarf / Ribbon around the neck, wrist or arm during the run. I wore a hair band of tricolour.

sorry for the delay in replying. work has kept me busy all of last week.

ha ha, yeah, i read you... girls only run!!! just when i was about to cut my hair in disappointment. kidding. won't be running, but hey, all power to you and that run!! lovely to have so many options all around the city.

meanwhile, sunday 6th feb, our usual bandra-nariman pt group run. you can join from bandra like last time, else start with ram (from khar) or with raj from goregaon. or check with gen, she's running too she said, although i don't know if she's starting with us at bandra.

Hi Roshni,

I donno if you remember, I met you during Pune Marathon 2009 with Giles and Veera. Anyways, your write-up on Pune M 2010 is excellent. I am from Pune yet I was very disappointed to miss it this time since I was out of town. Your write-up helped get over it.

Good luck for SCMM. I'll be there too.

Regards

Sudhi

roshni, had met giles this morning and told him about your request to block a place for madhu. he has done so, but now madhu has just posted that she will not be able to attend on the 22nd. should we unblock that slot?
At 19:17 on December 31, 2010, milton frank said…

roshni... about getting to sunday's run, have posted details about the same on the discussion thread.

about booking madhu for the runner's bash, it's on a first-pay-first-served basis, so if she is amongst the first 55 to pay ram, giles or raj, her booking will be confirmed. ideally, if she gives you the money you can pay the same to any of the three, after the bandra-ncpa run on sunday as they are all running. the online form can always be filled later as confirmation is against monies recd only.

hope to see you on sunday and as mentioned check details i have posted on the discussion thread regarding getting to carters.

At 6:49 on December 31, 2010, milton frank said…
ps... please also inform madhu about the same.
At 6:49 on December 31, 2010, milton frank said…
roshni... the runner's bash is now finalised for 22nd jan (see discussion thread on main page). as hall capacity is limited, we're urging runners to book early to avoid disappointment. we want our regular serious runners to definitely be there. first-pay-first-served basis. previous discussion was only indicative and not confirmation. you can immediately confirm your slots by paying ram, giles or raj. we are running bandra-nariman point this sunday 2nd jan (see discussion thread), and the three of them will be available for payment after the run at ncpa or stadium restaurant later. you will also be reqd to fill out the online form, link of which is on the new runners' bash discussion opened by ram on the main page. this is for information purposes only (veg/nonveg etc)
