A technique to improve running by raising energy levels

As most runners are aware, several things can go wrong in the course of a race, the idea is to prepare well to minmise the possibilities of each of those events. To increase energy levels and to improve lung capacity, there is a kriya that works, it is called the Shambhavi Maha Mudra. A Mumbaikar who finished the Comrades this year in some 10 hours or so, is a regular practitioner. A class to teach this will be held in Mumbai in mid December and I would recommend it to all runners. …See More

Kharghar hills

The Kharghar hills are usually closed during the monsoons. We should try and get the authoritries to open it up for us. if any of you are running there tomorrow, can you find out who we need to approach for this? I can then initiate a discussion with the people one needs to push for this.

Chandigarh Marathon

i was directed to the Chandigarh marathon website by a friend and I find that the organisers have no clue. The 42 k marathon starts at 5 am and you have to finish by 845, are they mad or what? This is what happens when an event is taken over by a media company with no idea as to how to organise events like this. The cut off time for the half is 3 hrs, the start is at 545.

Thane marathon

Ran the thane half marathon today, here's a first take.1. It was very well organized. My compliments to nagesh shetty and his team.2. It is a much more difficult course than the Mumbai marathon, serious runners may note. It is on one road which is undulating in most parts and the climbs are strenuous for sure.3. Water stations were well stocked and well staffed too.4. Road traffic management was good. We ran on one side of the road which was blocked for traffic.5. Medical help was available…See More
