Comrades marathon: Can I conquer ?
by Vijay on Nov.28, 2009, under Links, Running
I recently came across this amazing Ultra marathon and have been unable to take my mind off it. I follow Bart Yasso on Twitter and got the first introduction there to this long endurance race. And a great first hand account of the race and its challenges by someone who completed it, is here at runnersworld. Remarkable !
My body is far from being ready to face 55 miles right now but I want to do this some day. In the next few years. Before the years wither and wane this body I carry around. 2011 might be the magic year and I’ll hopefully be able to conquer this distance. Time will tell …

This is a collection of my thoughts from the mundane to engineering research, from attempted poetry to absolute philosophy, that drives me, with an occasional rant on life.
