It has not been many days since I ran my second 10k run successfully. The last time I participated in the run it was more of a walk than a run. This time it was half run half walk and I completed it in lesser time than I had expected. I was pleasantly surprised by this and I saw the same feeling echoed by most the other runners from HTC. It is one of the things I really like about marathons in general. You are in competition with yourselves, not others. This time I had decided to finish better and actually do some running in the 10k run. Everyone was trying to do better than what they would normally do. The atmosphere around, the positive encouragement and an urge to be better drives us all to put that extra spring in every step. Competition is not new to us. We compete in every sphere of our lives. From getting good grades to getting placed, life has been a series of competitions. From competing with Sharmaji ka ladka to competing with Vermaji ki beti, it has mostly been competition
