Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

The driveway for this Friday

The air is still cool early morning this time in April.

The breeze rustled leaves and a loud, arrogant peacock announced his presence from a branch at least forty feet above ground. Its long tail is full and there are peahens everywhere. He’s vying for their attention.

Meanwhile, the young boy is jumping with excitement because Chelsea beat Manchester United at a thrilling game while we were asleep. Cole Palmer has captured his admiration and the young boy is already proclaiming him as the greatest.

I listen about the match – he’s read up on it already – and we promise to watch the highlights together

We run with ease, no pressure at all, just time on feet even as the last couple of kilometres go by faster.
