Good run at Wipro Bangalore half marathon

 The run on sunday, 21st September went pretty much to plan . Without pushing to the hilt I finished in 2:15:24  - about half a minute behind the 2:15 pacer and good friend R.  Was comfortably on target for a sub 2:15 till Km 15. Slowed down considerably after that and then the right toes cramped at Km 18 . Considering the long travel and trip in less than 36 hrs it was not worth pushing through that.  Very satisfied with the outcome and the recovery has also been good. Hopefully 3 weeks break from running will help me get back with renewed vigour in the 2nd half of October. And the break from strength and other trainign will not set me back too much. Have greater confidence now  of getting in a couple of 25-30Kruns by mid November which will enable me to target  530 FM at Mumbai in January 2026.

More details on Sunday's run later,
