When Anush Ran

January 16, 2007 | Filed Under Jumboji, Mumboji 

Sometime back I had written a post called, Run Anush Run. Anush a friend of mine was running in the Chicago marathon. His birthday being today, I thought of dedicating another post to him.

He successfully ran the marathon and raised the money he had promised to for Ashanet. He ran the 26.2 miles in a little less than 5 hours. His practice times were much better, about 3 hours, but standing in cold Chicago before the race began was not exactly the best experience. He developed some blisters in the foot and I can imagine how painful it can be running with the pain.

I salute his spirit and wish him a very happy birthday. I think he turns 30 today. It is the age where most men attain half enlightenment and resort to drinking beer everyday.

    Beautiful. Ask your friend if that kind of enthusiasm, passion and drive be packaged and bought off supermarket shelves? And if not, where can I find it?
