i-race at IIT Powai - Sunday, 3rd January 2010

Ran the 10K i-race at the beautiful IIT powai campus, came home in a time of 1.01.05 hrs. Was the personal best so it is okay. Was able to sustain higher pace almost throughout the race except for some time towards the end. Felt could have done better in the end stages, maybe picked up more pace. Overall satisfactory, but not entirely okay, could have improved on the timings.
