Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

TM in the Middle

Because of very early travel today, I didn’t do my morning run but carried my running gear just in case I could squeeze out a run in between commitments.

Some things fall into place just like this. A meeting call ended earlier than usual and I had an hour before the next commitment.

On the spanking new treadmill it was at the hotel gym. I was immediately reminded of this recent post by my coach Eilish. While of course my travel or routine is nowhere near hers, I too always ask about the gym and its timings. This one was open 24 hours.

Fortunately, I didn’t feel too tired although it was one of the rare times I felt sleepy on the treadmill. So, every kilometre, then 800, 600, 500 and so on, I kept increasing the pace and adding some elevation work in between.

By the end, I had worked out a decent sweat and done the work for the day.
