“Chennai Runners 10×10, is a 10 day run series where each runner signs up to run 10 days consecutively doing a minimum of 10KMS each day.  Nice run series to challenge and test you…

This was first started in the month of July 2010, with  around 50 runners signing up for this and completing the series before the CitiBank Chennai Runners ECR 12 event. The finishers were recognized with a medal in the ECR event. Last year ~50 runners logged a total of 5500KMS in this series. It is not an easy task to 10 KMS daily for 10 consecutive days. Your mind plays lot of tricks and you have to master it. It is an achievement and folks here in Chennai Runners do it as a group encouraging everybody.  The 2010 10×10 series run log is at : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AvG3_G5hx2-qdFdacWhMUTdSenh3eDlLVGtUWUktSnc&authkey=COe9-rYL&hl=en_US&authkey=COe9-rYL#gid=2
