The very Idea of running !

It's very hard to understand in the beginning that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit.
Dr. George Sheehan

So true. i do get occasional thoughts of why i am being crazy and until that one freakin loud voice hollers back, BECAUSE YOU ARE CRAZY ! now get on with it and finish the damn run, so you can start the next one.

My first 2011 run !

My first run of the new year on 2nd Jan 2011 @ 6.00 AM was a long run from Nehru park to India Gate and back , a loop of about 16 km, which I made 17 km because i got lost !

Here's the 2 pics i took from my phone :

Now... Forever

"I guess that’s all forever is. Just one long trail of nows. And I guess all you can do is try and live one now at a time without getting too worked up about the last now or the next now."
