The Hyderabad Heritage Journey

Posted on October 10, 2011 at 11:34 27 Comments

What was it that made me register for the Hyderabad Heritage Marathon? Perhaps it was the need to challenge myself to another such distance. I have been training and putting in 30k run since February, after I completed my first marathon. I had been erratic but since June, I was more consistent and wanted to run a 42k.

In July, I called my friend and colleague in Hyderabad and he told me October would be a good month. I quickly registered and assessed I had little time, but wanted to…

Hi Anand,

 

Need some more clarity on registration procedure for Vasai Virar Marathon.

I have downloaded the form, planning to courier it to the address mentioned in Rams mail along with my id proof copy.

 

Is that all right or do i need anything else also...

Hi Anand, Was wondering if you could help. One of my friend's is with Magic Bus (an NGO working in Mumbai slums), and she told me that she read an article in ToI about someone running the Sahara ultra to raise money for Magic Bus. Are you aware of the article (apparently it came out yesterday), and if so, would you be able to share details of how ToI got to hear about it (press release/ mail/ whatever).

Magic Bus, obviously, wants to give the runner as much support from their end as they can, which is why the ask.

 

Thanks!

Sports reporter at ToI? You can't really escape the cricket madness can you? But I guess the benefits far outweigh the inescapable hold the game has on everyone's mind.

 

Incidentally, I read your account of this year's SCMM in the paper. Didn't know you as you, though, if you know what I mean!

Sorry, Anand, we barely know each other, but your comment on MMR made me recognize you for a kindred soul.

Son to mother - "I am going to become a cricketer and play for India."
No comment.
Son to mother- "When I play for India, will you watch me play?"
Mother - "No way. I will disown you first."
That was me and my seven year old. What happened to the lovely guy who's greatest sporting dream was running a HM with his mother?
