I did not want to miss today's LSD as I wanted real fresh oxygen for
my body to get charged up for the upcoming Auroville Marathon. Though
I reached late by 10 minutes, I saw Shameek and Shahnaz running down
the St. Mary's Road.
I reached the start point stretched myself for 5 minutes and began the
run at around 5:30 am and decided to do between 9-10k.
The climate was perfect except for the slight humid. I was running
alone towards the regular route of LSD run and when I was about to
reach Rajaji Bhavan, I saw Shameek and Shahnaz running back to
Alwarpet. I joined them and their pace was much faster but decided to
tag along. Saw Srinath running towards his home and waved and he
wished us for a nice day ahead. Just few minutes later we saw Rajesh
and Akila running down ( may be they started around 5:45 am) and we
waved hands. Now the pace was getting faster and faster and I could
tag along with them till Malar Hospital bridge and then decided to
slow down and run at my pace.
Shameek and Shahnaz vanished out of my sight in few minutes and I
finished the 9.96km run in 1h:08m.
Since Shameek and Shahnaz did the regular LSD route till Velankanni
Church and back their run was about 12.5kms.
Finally it was a good run for us enjoyed every step.
P.S: Chennai would soon become hotter and hotter in coming days and
don't miss the chance to run in this cooler climate!!!!!!
