Writing about Running

A diary, mostly about running, by Aseem Vadehra

Now this is a good session

I woke up with a start with the alarm. I slept in very early. After coffee, the loo and usual gathering of water, gels, keys, I drove to Gurgaon.

There were already groups of runners on the Gurgaon Faridabad highway. Making my way through the innards of Gurgaon, I reached the track. Dawn had begun pushing its way into the night sky.

Gaju, the Coach, and a couple of other young boys joined me. I had one kilometre intervals and I had no idea how they would pan out. But they did.

I ran all of them at under the prescribed pace and some by quite a margin. The other two runners fell off at some point, leaving me and Gaju to complete the job.

While it was satisfying to have this session under the belt, I cannot help but think that I can do this faster.

I will. I absolutely will.
