good Univ 18.69 km 01:55 09:54 pace
Had thought of going to OGC. But felt too lazy. Dr Abhijeet Bhandari and Sanjay R. made me run very fast. Before I joined them, I was happily running at 6:40 pace.

With proven strategy, (like 20 min run / 3 min walk) I doubt if you would need more than 11 hrs. In fact I was surprised when you first said 11.40!

@Pratik - Yes, tapering for Comrades itself. Once in a while I try to remind myself that I can run faster (over short distances).

good N'hood 9.62 km 01:05 10:54 pace
Easy run to break into new shoes (Nike Pegasus+ 29). A bit of pain in right knee in last 200m, not sure if it is due to shoes.

@Neeraj - Had I known that you are at Univ, I would have definitely asked you. I had parked my vehicle near the fork just inside Univ and returned from there after first loop.

alright N'hood 11.66 km 01:17 10:37 pace
No niggles or pain still didn't feel like running at all. Kept effort easy throughout and only in last 3-4 km got into some sort of rhythm.

RUN
good OGC 24.47 km 02:44 10:48 pace
First 8-9k were alone as Madhu didn't come due to pain in his knee. Then joined by Kaustubh K. We stopped at around 8 am, then itself it appeared hot. I was happy that we were done with our run.

RUN
alright N'hood 30.95 km 03:27 10:45 pace
Day didn't start well. Found both vehicles with flat Tyre. So couldn't go to OGC. Ran near home. Felt sluggish throughout. Relieved that this run is over.

That's so sad Vivek, can feel your pain. But you are our hero too apart from other finishers.

Thank you everybody! Yes, it's another experience. My left calf is still hurting while walking but it's lot better than yesterday. I have thought of taking a break of 2-3 weeks from running now.
