The reason why ADHM is a different race for me this year is because I have not trained specifically for it. There has been an increased focus on cross training, swimming and biking, over the last couple of months. Yes, I have put in 4 days a week of running, but it has been fairly unstructured and a lot less intensive compared to all these years. \u00a0More significantly, even whilst training, I have run at paces which I have felt good at, not really pushing the bar or test my limits.<\/p>\n

Dare I hope for a PB? Hell yes, who doesn\u2019t? It’s Delhi!!<\/p>\n

Is it realistic? Probably not.<\/p>\n

But then, it\u2019s a half marathon, perhaps, I could just about get away with this complacency.\u00a0\ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Come race day, I hope to give it my best. I can\u2019t quite pin point a finish time. But I wish to run outside my comfort zone. Let\u2019s see how long I can sustain my pace for. All I can do is try and hang in.<\/p>\n

Optimum conditions are not always possible. How we make best of a situation will go a long way in determining the result.<\/p>\n

Use your strengths, use your experience, have faith and you might just get lucky! \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
