I’m Back.

It’s definitely been a while, but today I went on the first run that was worthy of a post in a long time. It’s not that I fell out of love with running, my body and mind were desperately in need of a rest after a long track season. Getting back into it was hard, [...]

Carpe Diem

This is for my LHS XC Boys. This is our season, this is our opportunity. This is our chance to show the world we belong at the top. This is our chance to show everyone what Lynbrook XC has done for us. It’s our time to show Hank and Jake and that their hard work [...]

I Miss It.

Everything about it. I just want to be back in Hawaii, there’s no other way to explain it. I want to wake up in room 866 with my team. I miss having nothing to worry about, I miss living for the moment, I miss it all. Life here sucks, I have to admit it. Having [...]

The Tree Atop Priya’s

Lum, I’m sorry I didn’t reply to your texts two nights ago but I was preoccupied with sleeping at 2 am, so I’ll respond to them here. I’m sad to hear what happened but I’m glad that you turned to running for help. It puts a huge smile on my face knowing that when you [...]

~~/\~~Hawaii~~/\~~

I don’t really know how to start this post or how to write it for that matter. I never thought I could write down what Hawaii was like in words, and since Varun has currently stolen my Julia/Lum method of remembering trips, my fingers will have to take a stroll down the keyboard and see [...]

This Love.

Has taken it’s toll on my legs, but man was it worth it. Two races, felt great in both. I really hope this will last throughout the season (knocks on wood) I’m bound to have a few bad races and I’ll accept them as they come, forget them, and move on, but for now I [...]

Hawaii Love-Take Two

I’ve realized that I will enjoy this Hawaii trip as long as I don’t try to draw comparisons between the two times I went. Freshmen year was different, getting to know everybody, being quiet on the car ride, and eventually become one of the LHS XC team. This time it’s our turn to be the [...]

Oh Nine You’re So Fine.

Three years ago you guys were the big bad sophomores, I still can’t believe that now it’s your turn to be freshmen. I always felt like I belonged in your class, not mine. I can’t really put my finger on it but it’s somewhere between the maturity you guys display most of the time and the [...]

The Long White Line.

What is the long white line? It is the start and finish of Cross Country. That solemn white chalk line, it takes minutes to make to but forever to forget. We take off from it on the first day of practice, those first painful miles after a summer with not enough running, the thrill of [...]

It’s been a long time.

I haven’t written anything in a while. I don’t know why, maybe nothing amazing has happened recently, maybe i haven’t had any races worthy of being in here. No runs high enough for this. I keep telling myself, “I need to make a new post” and I just never got around to it. Oh well, [...]
