5K run in a gloomy day!

Running in continuous rains with temperatures in the 30s F? That felt idiotic.

Realizing that I had not brought my gloves and had no head gear but the baseball cap? That was beyond idiotic.

Realizing that people were staring at me from their cars at the traffic lights wondering what kind of idiot would run in this weather? Now, that inexplicably, felt very good!!

So, does that make me a real idiot or merely an aspiring one?

The sun came out!!!

Predictably, so did the motorbikers! Four of us – Avi, Rakesh, John and yours truly rode to Norcross for a lunch at the Iron Horse Tavern. While in my old stomping grounds, of course, I had to meet my old buddies Tim and Nanette too! We missed you Marte!

A run in the beach with Amitesh

Far cry from the runs he and I put together in that winter of 2009 in Atlanta. (We had to use five layers of clothes once when it was 0 degrees Fahrenheit). This was way more comfortable!! Subsequently, he has focused more on his tennis rather than running.

And that marks my country number 22 to have run in till date.
