3rd Sep - Mount Merry Slopes (9 rounds)

Hi...

below are details of my todays run at the Mount Merry Slopes....
the Slopes is mainly done once a week for 2 things.
1. Increase Stamina
2. Gives Strength to the heart and legs.

Mt. Merry is pretty sleep, which you can imagine seeing the Elevation mentioned in the sheets...
the chart shows i have ran on different roads, but such waviness in running is only on 1 road, where we were going UP and DOWN....was going side ways often because of Cars approaching and also many other
runners were there of different groups..

Now in the mornings, you see Mumbai running and gearing up for the Marathon...
If you see, i ran only 5 kms....but if you compare it with Calories burnt with my yesterdays 5 kms run, you will notice, that i burnt almost 200 - 220 calories more then yesterday.....

Currently reading a book " CONFESSIONS OF AN ALL NIGHT RUNNER " by DEAN KARNAZES...
totally Kickass book on how this guy started to Run, left if for 15 years, and 1 fine night on his 30th Birthday decided to pick it again and then you have to see what all he has acheived in running so far......
haven't completed so far, but this guy managed to run an Ultra Marathon of 100 miles (160 kms) under 24 hours of continous running through all kinds of temparature that you can imagine....

THIS WAS HIS 1st ULTRAMARATHON...to know more about this guy, just google on his name and you will now....
AWESOME BOOK TO READ...
