The Gaju Effect

This morning I reached track at an early time. It had been a while since I had done that.

Gaju was already waiting for me in the parking lot sans Coach Ravi who I heard had fractured his hand.

Off we went out for a road run. Immediately, we took up a reasonable pace and two kilometres later we found our stride and were running at a tempo-ish effort.

It was our usual out and back and surprisingly there was a cool breeze in the air that translated to a headwind on our return.

Back home, it was on the bar with leg raises and pull ups. Following that were dead lifts, calf raises, kettlebell exercises, core work, squats and a smattering of other exercises.

This is what good feels like.
