Won't be surprised if Lalbaugcha Raja Pandal is declared as VIP only in future. The treatment is so highly visible in a single frame.
High time Mumbai Police takes over the crowd management, otherwise, slowly will lose essence amongst the common public.

To all those who ask me, why I run, this is the answer. The community is just so amazing , around the world.

Navi Mumbai has such a dustbin every 200mts - almost in all streches. This is merely with an annual budget of ₹4,950 crore.
Mumbai has none, even with an annual budget of over 12 times at ₹59,954 c, forget the equivalent lying in FD.
INTENT is missing. Such a shame

Little disappointed with the run

today. It's not about the timing, but about the momentum I couldn't hold on after 6KMs. Nevertheless, finishing in 46:30 is a dream for many, and I was able to clock it amidst less intensity training because of Mumbai's humid weather.

4:20 is the unofficial timing!🫣
Take aways:
➡️ Good first half
➡️ Surviving 20 miler (first stop here)
➡️ A decent humbling last 10K - finished with energy
Mentally strong run, didn't abuse myself like I did in TMM.😂 A much needed mental barrier breaker run before TMM.
It's a long run day in Mangalore tomorrow.
Who else is here tomorrow?

Paced 1:50 HM @ Lokmat Maha Marathon. A rolling course. Thankfully had a local runner guiding me while I was helping him maintain the pace. Did a smart pacing over. A group of 4 stuck together till the end, with everyone clocking a sub 4 30 at the end, courtesy declines.

Unofficially a 3 secs PB for me. Chased HM at 1:33:04. Started the race a few mins late to catch-up with friends on the Insta360 - first hand experience. Had a slow start because of the crowd.
