365 Km to USA

1st July -

Got accepted into a Sports Photography Workshop in the USA.

Yay.

A look in the mirror confirmed that I am overweight and I cannot run 2 strides without panting crazily.

Nay.

Figured I will have to do something about it to keep up with the other participants on the workshop and to optimise my time at the workshop.

Plan.

From now till the 23rd of September 2011 (that's when the workshop commences)

If I run, 5km each time for 73 days. I'll hit 365km total.

Assumming a person weighing 200 pounds (that's about me) a 5km run will burn about 400 calories.

SO at the end of the 73 days.. I would have burnt something in the range of - 29,000 calories.

Not sure how much I would shed.. But it'll prolly allow me to run 5 step at least without panting crazily.

What the hell.. let's give it a try...
