Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

Fartleks at Nehru Park

Fartleks. Quite a word.

This was my training today. I woke up on the later side after some troubled sleep in the night.

My dreams were technicolour and weird and I woke feeling out of sorts.

A coffee and some cello music in the car later, I reached Nehru Park. It wasn’t busy but there were several familiar faces in the running crowd.

The run was hard.

On the way back, it was more cello music and an incredible variation on a popular piece with Yo-Yo Ma and Andrea Motis.

To round up, a quick circuit workout and core exercises to finish off the morning.
