Run around Sanky Tank - Malleswaram
On Sunday (June-06-2006), we had the monthly RFL (Runners for Life) run at Malleswaram. The run was around Sankey Tank. The scheduled run was for 8 laps and each lap was 3.5 kilometers. There were around 15 runners who came for the big run. There was another smaller run of 2 laps for beginers.
We started around 6:30 AM. I decided to have a slow run and do as many laps as possible. First two and half round I ran with Bhasker and then fell back, a little. There was a section on CV Raman road along IISC, which was a steep gradient of over 1 KM. I started suffering on those. Finally managed to complete 6 laps with no injury.
Highlight of the run was a 70 year old smiling gentleman, Dinesh who completed 7 laps. I hope, I will do 24.5 KM when I turn 70.
