Runs and rides in the US: Sep – Oct 2016

For 3 weeks after the Hyderabad marathon, my fitness activities slowed down while I was recovering from the marathon and a viral fever. As I was scheduled to travel on work, I planned to compensate for lost action.

I started with a target to run about 100 km during these 3 weeks. But with beautiful weather and running trails at New York, Charlotte and San Francisco, I made it over 120 km. Manhattan Central Park, Charlotte Little Sugar Creek and SFO Bay area parks are beautiful places to run! And my buddy at Charlotte helped me go biking on a couple of days during one of the weekends covering 94 km across the Carolinas. I got a feel of the US countryside for the first time! Overall, one of those rare instances where I was able to exceed my target.
