    Date: December 2, 2018 Event: Millennium City Marathon, Gurgaon And there takes off my Marathon pacing career… Even though I have been running for 4 years now, I never had many chances to give back to the running community by pacing events.

    Race: Spice coast marathon Date: 11/11/2018 This scenic run in Cochin, Kerala, my home, is becoming my new favorite!

    Last week, I checked a few things off my bucket list; exploring Africa was one among them. Being a runner, I did that in true runner’s way – finished Africa’s only Gold label marathon in 3:52:25. And the best part, it was a PB for me! Africa was in my ‘to visit’ list for a…

  • Homemade Peanut butter!

    My Saturday success story… Finally made my own peanut butter… As someone who consumes at least 300g of peanut butter per week, I keep buying jars of them from the grocery store every month… Peanut butter is a healthy choice they say… but, how healthy is stuff you buy from the market?
