Monday Marathon

I don't really intend to post daily on my blog, but I could not resist myself from posting the fact that never before in the last 1.5 years, I have been able to hit the Gym on a Monday except this Monday (Jan 4th). You might be wondering, what's so special about Monday. For me it's not special, but it is a day that starts even before Sunday ends. My Monday starts at 3:30 am because I have a catch a 6:30 am flight and its almost an hour drive from my residence to the airport. Such an early start followed by a hectic day in Office leaves me with no energy by evening. However, yesterday I did go to the Gym and dutifully carried out my task of running for the day. Completing 1500 miles in a year will require me to walk/run at an average of 4.1096 per day. Missing out on any single day will create an uphill task for me in the days to come. I therefore did not want to have a duck day on the 4th day of the year. The most intricate task was entering the Gym. Once I was in, completing my 4+ mile was easy as a pie. (Need to admit, my ankle is hurting a bit). Leaving pretty late from office and then completing my 1.5 hr in gym, my monday ended at 11pm. It was really a very long day.
I just thought may be I should track my miles like a cricket score. Anil Patil's 2010 match with 365 overs and a asking run rate of 4.11. This is how my graph looks after 4 overs. Not too bad eh?



Score at the end of 4 overs: 14.41 miles

Cheers...

It is getting more and more exciting. Hmmm.... I want to compete with you. Let me also start working out the same (or should I say some) miles this year.... what do you think? Let's see who is able to complete... At least I will also be somewhat active? Do tell me your decision.... mail me at vikset2005@gmail.com
