No workout or run today.

There were twenty of these. As a total, that’s nothing. As time, nothing.

But as repetitions and effort – phew. I was so done.

Nehru Park was quiet this morning. There was a light breeze from the overnight rain. There were a smattering of usual runners.

Instead of the longer, unfamiliar routes that I had been taking recently, I went the usual Niti Marg – Shanti Path express.

Lost in my thoughts, I finished a relatively easy fifteen.

Rest day. Title says it all. Couldn’t happen.

So said the young boy when we ran this morning. I ran part of the loop solo, then bumped into Kapil, then the young boy joined us, finally finishing up with just the boy and me.

The weather is challenging. The temperatures are soaring. But so are the spirits of the Nehru Park environs.

Missed the intervals this morning. Long work day. Thought I would make it up perhaps in the evening but was bombed after work.

Rest day today.

Hit the driveway because I woke up late. Glad I did it and got it out of the way.

It was good going today at the park. The timings were so-so but given the weather I might forgive myself.

Ran this morning in the driveway and was joined by the young boy for the second half. Easy peasy followed by a good core workout and a big breakfast.
