Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

One K Fun

It was interval day at the track and I had fifteen repetitions of one kilometre.

At first the session was daunting – to say the least – but after a couple of repetitions, I seemed to get the hang of it and I got into a good rhythm. I kept checking in on myself, staying within a couple of seconds for each interval.

Gaju joined me for the full session and Jeet for most, although Jeet ran faster than I did.

The rest of the track gang were doing their training – possibly 400m or 800m – so they would burst from behind – legs, arms flying.

Towards the end, the sky just about started to turn pink at the horizon and I gunned down the last interval ‘like a train’ said my kind Coach after reviewing my timings online.
