Mumbai, on the west coast of India, hosted the 9th edition of the Standard chartered Mumbai Marathon. The weather was great at and the race started on time (5:40) with some 2500 runners in the open category. My Target was under 5:00 hours as i did not want to put any pressure on myself with a specific number. strategy was to ensure i run at a pace 9-9.5k / hour. I did it in 4:43 and am very pleased with what i achieved as this was 30 minutes better than my last one in 2011 at the same venue and this was my first one wiht VIBRAMS.
