Joke of the day 13

June 26, 2009

Yesterday Pranjal started seeing subtle worlds. Around midnight when he was falling asleep out of exhaustion he saw a gnome standing on the pavement. He was taken aback. We he ran closer, he found out it was a regular hydrant.

Day 13

June 26, 2009

The 13th day. It’s 3.10 pm.. I did 115 laps yesterday, although I was hoping to do 116. At the last moment I got some troubles with the left shin splint, so I decided not to push. It is still reminding me of itself, but I am ignoring this acquaintance by doing special warm-up exercises, applying ointments and doing visualization. Yesterday was the first hot day with temperatures over 30 C. By evening, fatigue started to accumulate in legs and I figured out that with such endurance challenges it was crucial that I maintain alkaline balance. In the afternoon I felt lactic acid forming. So I started drinking water with coral calcium and it did a lot of good. We had a rain today, now the sky is clear and it is becoming hot. There’s some not very inspiring news, too. Pranab is not allowed to run today. Rupantar, the race director, wants him to discontinue the race due to the worsening condition of his skin. We all really want to stay all together. But we’ll see. The life goes on.
