Auroville - 42.2 KM
Probably the toughest 5 hours of my life (4 hr 55 min 46 sec to be exact),also the most painful (but long distance runners are known to be masochistic).The day was 14/02/2010. This Valentine day started with a sleepless night and ended with a 16 hr long sleep (I don’t know where my 15th disappeared).The anxiety was too high.

I am at the NIKE RUN CLUB on Sunday mornings and we usually have a lot of runners there that are doing both the half and the full. Besides, we have a format that helps in strength training.
Welcome aboard.
Thanks for your comment on my wall. Even though Auroville was not that great in many fronts, I thought the volunteers were helpful and enthusiastic.
As for me, I believe on a good day when everything falls in place, I will break 3 hours for a marathon - we shall see! As for training tips, I'm no expert, but will gladly share my experiences.
Happy running!
