The latest runner we are Q&A-ing with is one of my online running friends, Dr. Arvinder Kaur.
We are part of the same training programme with Dr. Chauhan, but thanks to everything that 2020 (& now 2021) has thrown at us, 99% of us haven’t met. We are all training on our own, so we only get to chat on WhatsApp.
But Arvinder is a runner, so she’s automatically a friend 🙂
Right, so now let’s chat to the good doctor, shall we?
1)Why do you run?
Initially I started to shed some extra kgs.. but then I fell in love with running. Now I run to enjoy me time and enjoy the movement of my physical body.
2) When did you start running?
June 2014.
3) Morning/evening runner?
Evening runner. Post work. So 8 pm type.
4) With or without music?
Somedays.. the sound of nature around is the music.
Mostly with music.. or audio books. My favourite song is https://youtu.be/BQmUM0ThZDU audio books.. Abraham Hicks audios
(I listened to the qawwali piece Arvinder recommended – very interesting, indeed.)
5) Next running goal?
Well, it was my goal in 2020, but as it was a “special year”, so it is now this year’s goal.. Tuffman Beach Run Goa.. Half Marathon 🙂 🙂
Wow!
That’s a smashing goal, my friend.
Good luck to you & I’ll definitely chase you for a race report – a beach run in Goa…sounds fab, especially in our current Delhi cold and foggy weather!

In case you missed it, here’s a blog post Arvinder wrote for us last week, about being verbally harassed by some judge-y man in her park.
As I said at the time – the hell with him! You keep running, my friend, and dream of that beach run!
