The race that wasn't

Short race report:

I DNFed. I pulled out at 36th KM mark due to low Blood Pressure.

Read this poetry by Wajid Ali Shah, after a long long time, rightly describes my state of mind right now.

Dar-o-deewar pe hasrat se nazar karte hain
Khush raho ahle watan, hum to safar karte hain

And the training again begins this Saturday, after the log run in Mumbai.

A detailed race report is on its way.....

Make a difference - Donate and help fight Cancer

Like all years, I am supporting the Sudha Mehta Cancer Foundation (SMCF) this year as well. The trust is started by a friend and I have closely seen the kind of work they are doing. The money received from the donation is used to buy Cancer medicines and the treatment for the poor and needy. A lot of people in our country cannot afford the Cancer treatment, this charity works with them and provides help to them

I am running the Standard Chartered Mumbai marathon 2014 on Sunday, 19th January 2014                            

I have been training hard for this event and hope to achieve my goal this year.

If you want to support the idea of running for a cause, then I would request you to please donate for this cause, this would make a huge difference.

Also if you wish to donate please reply to this or mail me at evilshantanu[at]gmail[dot]com So that I am able to track the donations and send you the receipts.

Since it is a new trust, so the payment gateway still needs to be incorporated. However you can initiate a wire transfer or deposit in the bank account or handover the cheque to me.

All Donations are tax exempted, I will mail you the reciept for the donation made.

Please mail / call me if you wish to donate, would send a mail with the donation procedure.
