Intro
This blog as might be apparent from the title has to do with running, biking and basically other outdoor individualistic sports, sometimes extreme, such as rock climbing . But don't be surprised if you find articles on work, personal life, music and even philosophy, this blog is an exception in this aspect in the blogosphere of running blogs and I am trying to revamp the blog to make it more runner friendly. You might want to look at the sidebar titled 'categorised', which as is obvious, categorizes my posts into different areas of interest.
The other thing that might interest many people is a section on 'running videos' and 'general videos' on the side bar, which I keep updating now and then.
I plan to bring in more posts on running and biking, with some added colour, so as to make them 'complete'. That's about it for now.
As a post-note, I have run a half-marathon, but I am yet to attempt a marathon, which through some concerted effort and time should happen in the future, but that ofcourse is not the culmination of this blog, it would on the contrary be something to jumpstart this blog onto new vistas.
Yeah, I am talking about the Bangalore half marathon to be held on December 18th.
Though I am nowhere near running shape, courtesy not running for the past one month, I might just wanna attempt it and if possible try completing it. Some amount of training is required you say, hmm, might start this month end or early next month. The first half marathon I had attempted was a lesson on why you shouldn't run a half with 10 days of training.
My concern right now is the status of my left knee, which will dictate whether I would be able to train properly and get the long runs(atleast one or two) before I hit the race.

Cheer up, you should be using this half to do the full, experiences shouldnt be missed, best luck for you and ur knee to finish it successfully Kn (correct :-)
Karthik, good luck... try a long long and see if ur knee hurts.. if a 1 hr run doesn't hurt, then u shld be going for the half marathon... i might be in bglr that day and will come and cheer u :-)
@randomthougts : Thanks....
@armadillo: Yeah experience allright - will keep posted on my training etc
@naikutti: - Might take sometime before I run that long..Thanks dude..Rite now not sure I'll be there, but it being a weekend, might make it.
It seems a little too close for you to be able to put in much work, but good luck anyway if you decide to do it. If I were you, I'd plan my comeback very carefully, it's important to prevent these injuries from relapsing.
Hmm..what you say is true...wil tread carefully...
got an interestingdesign for your page :-)
