training update two oceans marathon

[amit]

I had a great nights sleep on friday, woke up at 4:00 am saturday and i wrote a text message to my friends back home in India:

It is Time
Seize the Road
Run up the mountain
like a Goat
Seize the Day
the mountain calls
Take the Bull
by its horns
It is time
My mountain Calls !!!

I FINISHED in 6 hours & 44 minutes.

Its monday today and I am back in Bombay, just woke up and I just knew that I have to thank my fellow runners at running commentaries, especially Sweder whose race report helped me no end. Thank you guys for all the encouragement. And I thought of you sweder as I ran up chapmans peak and wondered if you were also up in a mountain somewhere in England.

Ok, a full race report to follow with lots of pictures of the route for anybody who wants to run this in the future.

But here is the final comment for now: As i ran up the last few meters to the finish line -- I had only one thought : Comerades next year. (God Willing)
