A quick piece of background info for people who don’t know me. I’m British, but have lived out of England for decades. In some respects (well, a few), I still feel British. In certain moments. Under certain circumstances. (Usually sport or royal family related). But…there are mornings like today, when …
Sometimes, things can be magic. I set out early-ish this morning, hoping to get back into some form of running shape, after months of niggles. But since my “early-ish” wasn’t actually as early as it should’ve been, Nehru Park was already heaving with throngs of runners, and there was nowhere …
I know, I know, this is a running blog, and that I’m supposed to be a runner but… Life happens. Niggles happen. And since my stupid left hamstring is proving to be a very stubborn niggle and not healing, running is off the cards for the moment. But I’m still …
Those of you in the Delhi running/fitness space who know me, will also know that I am a diehard fan of Dr. Rajat Chauhan, the man who got me running. Doc is not only am accomplished runner himself, but he is a sports doctor, whose physio clinic in south Delhi …

Oh dear, oh dear. Here is quite a sad story about the just concluded Tata Mumbai Marathon – yes, yes, the one I pulled out of and have been whimpering about ever since :P Apparently some greedy fellas stole 2,200 finisher’s medals, thinking they were real gold. I’d seen a …
Well, aren’t you all the absolute best readers a gal could ask for?! After my feeling-sorry-for-myself post the other day, so many of you sent kind messages, and made me feel embarrassed by your generous words. Thank you. You are all smashing. Watching all the videos on Instagram of people …
Disclaimer: I was given the 2 tops I am about to review by Kica to try out, but with absolutely zero pressure to say/write anything about them. I don’t think the good folks at Kica even know I blog, so I repeat, absolutely no pressure from their side at all. …
There are some days when Delhi is just so dotty that it makes me laugh out loud. Take this morning, for example. Off I go on my-early-morning-fix run through Lutyens Delhi (and oh, how I so look forward to these runs…) Am just about getting into my stride outside the …
