All the articles were related to fitness and running.The author considered with deep conviction in his heart that the oneprobable reason why he came out a survivor in the pandemic was hispenchant for running since 2008 as a 48-year-old.It took a certain amount of courage for the author to wake up earlymorning and run solo on remote roads, roof-tops, terraces, parkinglots and inside his home during the lockdown. The author wrote thearticles with three basic aspects in mind. One, to cover the scientificaspects of running, like running posture, running cadence, mechanicsof breathing, lactate threshold and maximum oxygen uptake. Second,nutrition was covered under myths on carbohydrates, importance ofvitamins and minerals, vegan diet and eating for better performance.Third, being a 60-plus runner, he made sure to include subjects onexercise and longevity, importance of sleep and the older runner.He was also candid enough to give his own interpretation of thepandemic both during 2020 and 2021 separately related to running.There was also a common-sense approach to selecting runningshoes, understanding diabetes and a controversial deliberation onblood doping.
