Hi,

Sometimes small ventures and escapades trip you into a total new world and inspire you to do more.

My escapade into running has a been a similar experience.

I started to train for the annual Kaveri trail marathon and aimed to finish the half marathon distance of 21k without flipping over and dying, it was afterall the first ever long distance run I have ever attempted. I strongly doubted that I’d stick to the program but it’s been an amazing run till now and am now leached onto to the thought of knocking off my half marathon strongly.

Then, along the way you meet people like Santhosh and are further inspired and continue to be inspired with every meeting. He runs like a dream and runs it for a cause and I am humbled to make the most for this cause as well. The cause is Asha.

Read about Santosh’s involvement with Asha and his runs: http://www.teamasharunner.blogspot.com/

I run for Asha this season along with a lot more folks from Runner’s High and you are welcome to join. The more the merrier.

Asha works for underprivileged kids, it works at making their life more fulfilling and brighter by effort and focus on education and a lot more.

 I urge you to join me in turning this effort a notch further by contributing to this cause and sponsoring my run.

The sponsor will aid the kids and add a spring to my feet during the run.  Please contact me at ravish.bl@gmail.com to sponsor my run.

My goal is to raise Rs. 500/km. I am training for two runs starting September 2011
1. Kaveri Trail Marathon- September 18^th [Distance: 21km]
2. Ultra Marathon- November 13^th [Distance: 25km]

Thanks to 1 supporters who have helped me raise Rs.500 towards my goal of Rs.23,000
