If you don't know anything about shoes, the simplest way to get it right is to *not* buy running shoes for daily wear. Running shoes are meant for running (generally not good for all-day use).

Spent 2 days at an expo, looking for manufacturers for my passion project- [Chronic Cardio Energy Gels]. Key findings: > Everyone follows trends, few innovate (Example: Gummies and oral strips are abundantly available.) > Most manufacturers don't understand basic food-science.

If you live in Bangalore and endurance running is an indispensable part of your life, pay any price to live within 2 KMs of Cubbon Park. Can easily run for 12 hours without a bother. Esp. on Sundays.

Fauja Singh began running at 89 to cope with the loss of his wife and son. He became the oldest person to complete a full marathon at 100. He was 114 when he was killed in a hit-and-run accident, struck by a Fortuner while crossing a road, a tragic end for a man who defied

99/100: The next time I wear my running shoes, it’ll be to run the 100 Km ultramarathon. A good day to remember how much I struggled to run 5Ks just 3 times in a week. But the past is the grave. The next one will be just another day, after all it is literally a walk in the park.

100/100: A day late in posting this one. That’s the thing about ultramarathons, you’re bombarded with a lifetime worth of thoughts within a short span of time and it takes time to process and reflect. Ran the same cubbon 5 KM loop 20 times as planned. So many of you waved at
