Do try and step up the daily run to around 4km, so that your body gets a good workout and try and do this 4-5 times a week. If you are running purely for pleasure, this is suitable solution.<BR/><BR/>There is no substitute for running regularly, its like sleep, you can't accumulate it and do it over the weekend. Being disciplined is important for running.<BR/><BR/>As regards running inspite of a hectic schedule. Its not easy. To get around, always carry your running shoes with you when you travel along with your running gear, so that you have no excuse for not running. Try and avoid using hotel gyms they are usually not good for running, Go for a short 20mins run in the morning and it would do you a world of good.@GirishMallyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04923948088345062798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22785434.post-74519879428353254092007-11-07T21:34:00.000+05:302007-11-07T21:34:00.000+05:30Hi Hormaz, Yes I do remember you.

I was in Bombay too for a year and a half and used to regulary jog on Carter Road/Joggers Park. <BR/><BR/>Need your suggestion on this - for the sake of staying fit, I've been doing around 2km everyday for around 5 days a week (just for a bit of exercise).I've always failed to get a convinicng explanation on the challenge of maintaining the schedule when travelling,especially on work. From your archives, I understand that you also travel a bit. So just need your feedback on how you work around this.Like you've mentioned, is it fine to compensate for the break by doing a few extra laps on another day??<BR/><BR/>Regards - Siddharth Nambiar, BangaloreAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22785434.post-73998575083871756772007-10-30T16:15:00.000+05:302007-10-30T16:15:00.000+05:30Hey Girish,I am not sure if you recall me, its Hor...Hey Girish,<BR/>I am not sure if you recall me, its Hormaz (Akash's friend), i guess i met you at the Scout Hut some months back. <BR/>I just happened to stumble over your blog and dude, its great to see you putting in all that effort.
