I am very happy to announce that this race is now firmly on my schedule, thanks to the generosity of two of my dear friends and fellow athletes. I am looking forward to doing this race as it presents a life-size challenge for me and my heart is in it, 200%.

I never under-estimate the work this sport takes and after a fortnight of 5am wake-up calls and being in bed no earlier than 10:30pm, with mind-boggling amounts of work, training and studies in between, this is sure going to be a sweet weekend!

Watch out for an article about my (tiny) life in TimeOut Bengaluru, which is now out on the stands. I havent read it yet but, I appreciate the interest in off-beat sports.
