So this was a busy week as I get closer to the end of my 8.5 year tenure with the Globus family of Brands. After an intense day of work on Monday, I pretty much spent the rest of the week in Mumbai - meetings, farewell parties and such… Oh how I will miss the luxury of good gyms that come with hotels like the ITC Grand Central. I will miss that more than the food I guess because I can't deny that I would much rather eat vada-pao when I am in Mumbai!
Any way, this was not the week that I could squeeze in a long run during but had at least two days of 'getting out there'! Considering that the SCMM (Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon) is just 6.75 days away - the lack of long runs may as well have been part of the plan, though I get this faint feeling that I will be adding a longish run tomorrow morning!
The goals for SCMM are - have fun, run-walk-run and end at a sub 3 hours (apparently they will not be open to anyone who can't finish in 3 hours from 2015 onwards!)
Here's what was good this week - the weight is down to 71.1 kilos.. Muscles still feel quite tight - especially the right leg ones - right from the gluteus to the feet and I need to slot in (a lot) more stretching exercises.
Some more travel coming up next week connecting me back to Mumbai and then all the way to Kolkatta - plan to hit those chinese joints on Park Street.
Good luck to anyone else running the SCMM as I move into week 3 of 42 at 42 in 42… much love..
