We are usually a continuum of a being spread between our strongest self and the weakest one. Circumstances, events, feelings, or experiences make us who we are, but who we are is not a never-changing verdict, but rather a point in our life. This point can change whenever we want it to, but the sad part is we don’t…namok in # health • 2 yr. ago • 3 min readFitness: 25th April 2024 + A Did You Know Fitness QuestionGood Morning After nearly a couple of weeks, I could go to sleep by 1 a.m. which gave me a good amount of sleep to wake up at 6 a.m. and go for my morning outing. The weather is hot being the summertime, but it is not overwhelming. I stepped out thinking that I would decide on the way if I wanted to run or walk.

I got up really late by my early morning standards. I have to find a workaround for my late-night schedules. Although the nights help me get the work completed, but my mornings go for a toss.

I wanted to but I thought of better to stay inside than cause any pain to my ankles. Since I wasn’t planning to go out, I slept and got up at 8 a.m. By my morning standards, 8 a.m. is ultra late and hence I was on a ventilator finishing…namok in # health • 2 yr. ago • 3 min readFitness: 15th April 2024 + A Did You Know Fitness QuestionGood Morning Today was a very rushed morning with a meeting at my daughter’s school at 8:30 a.m. Despite me getting up at 5:00 a.m. there wasn’t time left for a run or exercise.

The feet feel fine. It is an odd situation that I feel pain before the run or after it, but not during the run. What am I supposed to do? Not run at all? Of course, that’s a rhetorical question. I will run soon again.

However, since yesterday my ankles have been hurting. This is not a new phenomenon and has been happening for a couple of years, at least. It’s a funny pain. Why funny?

My last 21-km was on 25th February and ever since I hadn’t gone out for a run. I did manage a three kilometer once in the last nearly one-and-a-half month, but that was all it. So, I am happy that I went out for the run today.

The thing was that I was so busy that I could not even do my regular home exercises. The only thing that I did do was run two half marathons of 21 kms each. And as you would have guessed, that was without any practice of any kind.

I have to admit that since my last half marathon on 21st January, I haven’t run much. In fact, the farthest I went was four kilometers and yet I am staring down the next half marathon this weekend.

This is the first time I am running within a day of the marathon. Usually, I would give running a week’s break before resuming again. Now I feel running at the earliest is the best thing to do.
