At first it was a solo start.
Then it was my friend Amit who came to Nehru Park. Characteristic of him, I received a wide smile but I pulled him into a hug. We ran a comfortable long loop catching up after at least a year, perhaps more.
At any rate, it was around the Covid time that the honeymoon period of five years ended between Maneesh, Amit and I. Maneesh moved back to Nepal. Amit concentrated on triathlon training. And I continued down a journey around running.
We spoke about his coach and mine, about training styles and races like the Goa Half Ironman and the Boston Marathon. Of nutrition and electrolytes.
We were back at the car and the young boy joined us. Amit ran with us for a mile or so and then peeled off back to the car. The young boy and I continued down the long loop to close off long run Sunday morning.
A French toast as Fig rounded things up and at home it was a solid workout to call it a morning.
