At the last moment this morning, I decided to go to Nehru Park for the long intervals. I asked Gaju if he could arrange a car and come to NP instead.
I just didn’t want to deal with the dogs and Coach Ravi shooing them or driving faster to make sure they didn’t get in our way. Even as I have done intervals and regular runs dozens of times on that doggy dog road.
There are plenty of dogs at Nehru Park too. But then there are dozens of runners and I think for the most part the dogs mind their business. What is certainly nuts is the number of cars and traffic at Nehru Park now.
At any rate, I reached and started a three kilometre warm up as prescribed. I had a total of ten kilometres of interval work packaged as 2k and 400m.
Boom. Stayed on target if not a bit better. Gaju arrived at some point in the middle and his company was very welcome.
A fabulous Saturday morning before heading into Diwali weekend.
