Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

Track not Road

Yesterday, I had assumed and hoped that I would do the usual Thursday road run with some of the track kids. But it had rained overnight and there was much water on the streets.

So track it was which in itself had glistening puddles reflecting the grey sky above. Dawn has noticeably moved. It is dark until nearly five thirty now.

The track was near empty but Khushbu was there and joined me for the first half. Then Nikhil overlapped with her and finished with me. We ran silently, the sound of sneakers on the wet track surface.
