Running Journey : Week 24/25 Update

 Running Journey : Week 24/25 Update

The week of 24 was washout nothing much was done, this really tested my consistency and due to other priorities especially the bad sleep pushed me out of the consistenly.

I ensure week 25 shoule be controlled back and managed to complete all run sessions and the Gym is yet to resume back.

Managing the time is becoming priority, as there are some time to be planned for others tasks in the morning.

So the plan is to hit the roads by 5.00 , and i am running around my backyard to save my travelling time

The below workouts is the summary

June 18 - 6 Kms Planned completed but could not do the steps.

June 20 - 1 Hour run it was, i managed to clock 9.2 Kms in 60 Mins

June 21- 5 Km Run ( SLR) Manged to complete it at 6.5 Pace.

One good thing i can put here is the consisteny in the Diet, I have planned to be on lighter diet as below.


2-3 Chappati/Roti - Break fast/Lunch/ Dinner

2 - Egg - Breakfast / Lunch

1- Cup of Curd.-Break fast/Lunch/ Dinner

This is going to be 100 Meal program out which 24 meal was sucessfull and today 25th meal has become a cheat. So 1/4 of the target is completed.

So the target for this week 

Workout 1  - Run + Gym - Not to skip

Workout 2- Evening Yoga/ Stretches to be added

Diet - To continue same may be add some veggies along with this.

The weight is hoovering around 72 and need to bring down to 70 and stay consistent here.

will keep you posted on the progress.

Nature Walk - Bangalore University !!

 I was happy to be part of the Nature walk in the Bangalore university !!













Running Journey : Week 23 Update

 🏃‍♂️ HM Training Journey 2026 – Week 6 / 16 Update

We are now at Week 6 of the 16-week Half Marathon training plan.

To be honest, the journey is not going exactly as planned.

The initial momentum after the Sub-60 10K slowly faded, and over the last 3 weeks !! I haven't been able to follow the training plan as consistently as I would have liked. Between work, travel, routine changes, and a few other priorities, the HM preparation has not received the same attention that the 10K training block received.

However, instead of worrying about the missed sessions, I have decided to focus on one thing:

👉 Consistency from this week onwards.

Sometimes the goal is not to have a perfect training plan. The goal is to get back on track.


📊 Current Status

  • Week 6 of 16 completed

  • Training not fully aligned with the plan

  • Long runs need more consistency

  • Strength training needs to be restarted regularly

  • Nutrition continues to be the biggest challenge



The positive side is that I still have enough time to build towards the goal if I stay disciplined over the coming weeks.


🎯 Goal Remains the Same

The target is still:

Sub-2 Half Marathon
🏃 21.1 KM in under 120 minutes

The timeline may have become tighter, but the goal remains unchanged.


🧠 Key Takeaway

The biggest lesson from the 10K journey was:

"It's okay to sink, but don't skip."

I need that reminder again.

Not every week will be perfect.
Not every run will feel great.

But showing up consistently will always beat waiting for the perfect week.


🔁 Looking Ahead

For the next  weeks, the focus is simple:

  • Follow the training plan

  • Prioritize long runs

  • Restart strength workouts

  • Improve nutrition gradually

  • Stay injury-free

No shortcuts.

Just consistency.

Let's see where the next 1 weeks take me.
