Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

Diwali with Gokul

Because I knew I would probably miss the next couple of days because of Diwali celebrations, I decided to run this Monday instead of taking the day off.

My friend Gokul and I tied up and met at Nehru Park. We did an easy one hour, talking through much of it. I remember that tracing our way back, we were quiet for a kilometre or two and the city seemed very still, the air cool and as if expectant with something.

When I got home, the young boy and I put in a solid thirty minute circuit workout.

A quite perfect way to begin the Diwali day. With best friend and son.
