Aravali Trail Run – some fun trail miles for the legs!

With Two Oceans 3 weeks to go, I was not really looking for a race last Sunday.

But when I saw a 32km category and since I had a 30k planned for the Sunday, I thought I will just go for it… at least to be around my club mates!

The run was everything I wanted on the day – a steady 5:30 pace, a win and enjoying the beautiful trails as much as possible! Checked all those boxes!

These trails in Gurgaon is one of the easily accessible ones with lot of jeep track and local movement… you get the rocky section and you get the mud tracks… these were the trails i started my trail running journey years ago.. and felt like life coming in full circle with my new trail running club for women!

And, these amazing women were just rocking their race categories… we still have less females in trail races especially the ultras… but somewhere some initiatives have to take off… it was not coming from the male leaders (i have offended them already). I have high hopes for this club and i see an interest in the community… To more women power on trails! 🍻

To me two more weeks of training… couple of hard workouts more and I will be tapering!

And, summer is coming!
