My Best Runs Running Log
*PDT (California Time)
Run The World Gobal Challenge celebrates running around the the world. RTW Challenge 12 started January 1, 2024. Monthly stats will be posted at the end of each month. We will also continue to keep track of miles from when we started as total miles since July 4, 2018. And of course our weekly log starting on Wednesday and finishing on Tuesday. The idea is to run or walk and then log those miles on your My Best Runs account. There is no entry fee. You just need a MBR account - and that’s Free too. After you sign up you log your miles on your account.

Today is the 5th day of the 31 days “Run to the Moon†challenge. Did 10 Kms of MAF aerobic low Heart Rate indoor running at an average HR of 130 bpm. Love today smooth HR graph.Health is the greatest wealth we will ever have. Without our health, our vitality, our best energy, every part of our lives has the opportunity to suffer. Health is about physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well being. They are all connected. They are all important.
We need to do exercise to keep or body fit and healthy, not just a simple exercise but a “Regular Exerciseâ€. Everybody could do exercise but there are only a few people who could keep up with regular exercise since most of us are lazy to do it. Doing regular exercise could really contribute a lot with regards to our health. This could make us active, relax, and attentive at the same time.
We must ask ourselves - is my job more important than my overall wellbeing? Does the money in the bank mean more to me than my long-term health?
To conclude, achieving a healthy lifestyle is well within your control if you start the journey with clear goals in mind and the realisation that it is your greatest wealth. An excellent health will enable you live a long life, have high levels of energy and vitality and more importantly live happily and peacefully, every moment. This will be your best return on your Investment.
Happiest people in the world are the ones who have Health and Love in their life.

Many a times we tend to get so caught up in times/paces/distances, both our own and of others, and the comparisons that we forget to just enjoy the thrill, pain and endorphins of a good run.Today I did an indoor slow MAF HR run of 15 kms with a slow time of 1:54:36 hrs at a low Heart Rate of 136 bpm @ 7:38 min/km pace, a pace which would usually look like as a ‘bad,slow’ run. But the enjoyment reminded me not to become so obsessed about racing against the clock or against my own or even others times. By doing so we forget to appreciate the feeling of a strong run and the feeling of freedom and enjoyment.
Dream your goals quietly, focus only on yours, don’t lose the love of the run or take yourself too seriously. Strength and determination can be measured in many ways – find what’s important to you.

“26 Virtual Rio De JaneiroHalf Marathonâ€
Virtual running events are talk of the town nowadays because the regular events might take a long to restart.
Yesterday I took part in 26 Virtual Rio De Janeiro Half Marathon, completed it in 2:42:40 hrs @ 7:43 min/km pace.
People from all over the world can take part in these virtual runs. But the problem with me is that I am in a Red Zone hence have to run indoors only. In Indoor running you have to put brakes every few seconds for turning which doesn’t allow you to run at a faster pace.
Continue the momentum,
Stay Active, Stay Healthy irrespective of circumstances.

I'm not going to spin a yarn here.. my body and mind are starting to feel a bit weary with all that is going on in the U.S.. running isn't as much a joy as it once was. Too much head stuff interferes. Conflicted by all the events as of late.

Today did 16kms of aerobic indoor running in 2:07:49 hrs @ 7:59 min/km pace and an average low HR of 131 bpm. Tried my best to keep it around 125 but in between it shot up.The most irritating part of aerobic running is that most of the times, you have to put brakes on your speed to be within the Heart rate limit. The moment you take 4-5 fast strides the HR shoots up. But that is the method of this training, to remain within your Maximum Aerobic Heart Rate.
We must abide by the laws of nature which gives us plenty of examples like “unless the iron becomes red hot, you cannot mould it, so is this training which is heating our body to get moulded and give us better results once it fully adapts it.

Wow! Today did My Longest Indoor Run, Full Marathon 42.2 kms.42.2 kms in 5:32:40 hrs @ 7:52min/km pace
Being a marathon runner I really love running, be it anywhere, never miss my running workouts. During the last two months of lockdown I have been running indoors every alternate day, sometimes 10k, or 15k or 21k and a few times 27k. Last week an indoor run “India United Against Covid-19 Indoor Run 2020†was announced, it is being held today. I saw that there were categories from 3k to 42k, so a thought came to my mind that why not try 42k this time, though it will be difficult for me but I will manage. So I registered for Full Marathon 42k.
I think officially I might not get such a chance again in life, so wanted to make it memorable by running a Full Marathon. Now I can proudly say and remember it as my only Indoor Full Marathon having run during the lockdown 2020.
Did the Full Marathon after a gap of nearly 10 years. I started running Full Marathon from the inaugural SCMM in 2004. From then onwards for 7 years continuously I ran FM in SCMM but in 2010 I suffered from Cervical Spondylitis and had to remain away from running for 3 yrs. On resuming running I chose Half Marathon so as not to put load on my neck.
Running a Full Marathon after a gap of 10 years and that too indoors was a great challenge for me, it was not at all easy, found it difficult after the 30th km, but I love running so I enjoyed it and completed it as a challenge. It was indeed a very different experience.
My Garmin Forerunner 225 battery exhausted after the 32nd km after running for 4 hrs, and when I charged it, it restarted so I got two datas, 32km and 10.2 km ( Totalling 42.2 kms in 5:32:40 hrs @ 7:52 min/km pace.)

“Watermelon is Wonderfulâ€Did the morning run of 18kms in 2:15:42 hrs @ 7:32 min/km pace at a HR of 137 bpm.
I prefer natural foods instead of supplements for recovery, so after the run enjoying my favourite summer fruit, amazingly sweet, juicy and ripe watermelon.
There are a lot of nutritional benefits of watermelon especially for runners, so we should eat it more because it has more than 90 percent water, it is incredibly hydrating. Eating watermelon pre or post run can help you rehydrate.
The juicy fruit is also loaded with vitamins A, B6, and C, to boost your immunity.
Watermelon juice is rich in the amino acid L-citrulline. Drinking watermelon juice postrun helps to reduce muscle soreness and cramps.
It also has potassium and electrolytes, which are critical after a long, hot summer run.
Eating Watermelon improves your running performance by increasing your ability to use oxygen efficiently because, like beetroot, it also contains nitric acid, which can improve blood flow and oxygen uptake improving your VO2 Max levels.
Post-run carbs are crucial for replenishing glycogen and with 21 grams of carbs per serving, watermelon is great to boost the recovery.
So reaching for a refreshing watermelon after your next run is a great way to rehydrate your stores.
Stay Home, Stay Healthy.
Keep Fit, Keep Running.

Today did 15kms of Indoor aerobic running at a low heart rate of 129 bpm in 2:02:00 hrs.The problem in aerobic running is that the moment you start running fast your HR shoots up. Tried my best to keep it around 125 bpm (my maximum aerobic HR limit) by slowing down constantly @ 8:08 min/km.
But once you mould your heart to beat at a slower rate by aerobic training, then even if you run fast, your HR will not shoot up and save you from injury, but it will take a couple of years of slow running to do that.
Stay Home, Stay Healthy.

Where there is will, there is a way.Half Marathon on my terrace.
My last two workouts were on the Western Express Highway Mumbai. Some people, reading my posts, requested me not to go outside on the roads for running. I humbly regard their gestures and thank them for their advice.
So today morning I dressed up and climbed one floor to reach my terrace. Could not get good pace due to small place but managed to do 21.1 Kms (Half marathon distance) @ 6:57 min/km pace in 2:26:46 hrs.
