Mumbai Calling!

Yes, back in my favourite race city after 4 long years!

Last time I was here back in 2020, I had a forgettable race. I was advised not to race considering the many injuries I have picked up towards the end of 2019. Still I travelled to Mumbai and lined up only to finish just under 4 hours in pain!

Then the pandemic happened and there was no race for two years. I skipped the race last year to focus on another city marathon in February.

With my racing schedule for the first half of 2024, Mumbai seemed favourable again and I couldn’t be any more happier!

After a good training block post-new Delhi half, I was feeling good until two weeks back when Vagamon ultra trail 33km happened. It was a hard race. Though I took it easier, I got a cold the day before and the past few days have been a recovery process.

So, lining up tomorrow morning, all I hope is my body remembers the hard training in the past few months and take me across finish line without an incident!

Mumbai course has always been good to me. So, hoping for a good day tomorrow!
