RUN!: The Hyderabad Runners, arguably “the best running club in India” will have the 4th Edition of their Club Run on Sunday 17th February, 2013. This edition of the Club Run includes 10K, 21K and 3K segments.
HR have been promoting running in the cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad with the aim of making running the most preferred form of fitness and leisure activity. This run begins and ends in the University campus and will include road and a bit of trail run. The route will be identified by route markers.
There will be aid-stations at every 2 kms providing runners with water, electrolytes, fruits and first aid. Since it is a Sunday, there is likely to be low traffic, but you should be careful in running.
Date: 17th February, 2013
Time (Half Marathon): 6.15 AM.
Time (10K): 7 AM.
Time (3K): 7.15 AM.
Starting Point: University of Hyderabad, Gachibowli, Hyderabad. Collect your bibs on Sunday 17th, @ the race venue at The University of Hyderabad from: 5:00am to 5:45am.
This is the First of the UoH Half Marathons… Which means, of course, that I’m hoping that that this will be an Annual feature. Perhaps even a Full Marathon in time to come?? Enjoy!
PRAY!: Today is Saraswati Puja, a festival that carries much meaning for any University. Learning provides the only true liberation, and that is a lesson worth remembering.
PAINT!: The Sarojini Naidu School, in collaboration with the IndiraGandhi Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalaya in Bhopal are organizing a 10 day workshop of Tribal Paintings- some great painters have come to our campus and will conduct a workshop with the Fine Arts Department. And also paint some of our public spaces… Come visit the S Radhakrishnan Lecture Hall Complex next week, and the S N School anytime between now and the 24th…
Thank you for your diligent efforts in promoting extra-curricular activities which I found quite lacking in the campus. To achieve a balanced and of course, a healthier lifestyle, all-round development of personality is a must. It gives you ideas, spurs on creativity and innovation towards the road to higher evolution. After all, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. I clearly remember this idiom from my class V.
