Its been an intense two weeks for Chennai. On the 1st of December, the skies opened up and the city saw rains like it hasn't in over a 100 years. If you have been following the stories in the news, this will come as old news. Every road and every street was flooded - some areas had it much worse than others. Along with the many thousands of pitiable stories of destruction and loss also came an equal number of heartening stories about how the people of the city got together in helping one another.
It is sunny days once again in Chennai and the city is slowly getting back to its feet and bits of normalcy has been returning. Runners are back again on the roads, continuing their training for the Chennai Marathon that was inevitably postponed.
My run today was a pretty uneventful one. My target was to run whatever distance I could in 2 hrs. Ended up doing 16.2 at an easy pace of 7'25".
Managed to catch a very pretty sunrise at Marina. (Would have been a pretty picture too if only that crow hadn't photo-bombed my shot!)
