While I have been running for all these years, 10+ years at this point, almost after every workout, especially speed and tempo workouts, I believed I had given enough of what I have in me. On a scale of 10, I would have rated myself 9! It is only after joining formal coaching under coach … Continue reading Thursday thoughts – The Power of Coaching
Dwarkadheesh farsan Mart in Wakad cannot be beaten in the fafda department! Though I would recommend a nice easy run in Balewadi stadium first, to earn this! 🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
This is a biography like no other. This book connects to you at multiple levels. I consumed the Audible version of the book, and was so glad to do that.

While the smoothie takes various colors depending … Continue reading The smoothie habit!

The hard intensive training (the pain), followed by adequate rest and recovery (the wait, or taper 😁), and then the moment of glory when you cross the finish line (the rising). And if you skip the steps you end up suffering (injuries). Applies to all walks of life! A … Continue reading The suffering comes when…
One of the best things that has happened to me lately is that I picked up the book 'Untamed' by Glennon Doyle.

And after about 100 pages in the book, I can attest that the book … Continue reading Untamed – Glennon Doyle. Must read!
Being in lockdown, I have been, with pleasure and gratitude, appreciating the beautiful sunsets. Especially the cloudy skies, they are a delight, provided you can actually see the sun set.
