Cracked Delhi Half Marathon - 21kms - 2009

The journey to Delhi half marathon started in early October 2009. When I along with 4 of my friends jokingly decided to register for “Dream Run” which was just 7 Kms. But on one Friday night when we were all high; achieving anything in the world seemed to be a piece of cake and we registered for 21 Kms Delhi Half Marathon… the journey began.

The beginning was the hardest part; from 0-1 Kms then from 1-3Kms almost took 1 week. But then we were all determined enough and we kept adding the kms as the day progressed. Finally, with all the team effort and encouragement we managed to reach around 12-14 kms before “The Day”.

On 1st Nov. 2009, we created a history (because only one among was an athlete) by grabbing the medal for completing Delhi Half Marathon 2009. It was specially a big moment for me because I met with an accident one week prior to the event. The accident was a major setback but I recovered and came out with flying colors.
