almost every evening i decide to accompany peter and roushini for their 5 am morning walks, but when i hear them unlock the gate early morning, i promise myself that tomorrow would be the best day to start. and that tomorrow is yet to come.
i remember as kids, dimpy and i used to get up early and take a round of the parade ground with narendra mama. we were more interested in having the bread pakora and tea after completing the torturous morning walk.
i was happy that dimpy joined NCC when she was in college, and was glad or may be overjoyed when she was selected to participate in the RD parade as part of the Uttarpradesh NCC contingent. but what i disliked the most was to get up early and jog with her as her escort. the reason i could never match her stamina and speed was because, while i muttered a lot while jogging and wasted my energy, she would quietly jog. it was good to see her march on rajpath :-)
dimpy has still not changed, health conscious as ever, she is currently practicing to participate in the Mumbai marathon next year. and has also motivated dilip to participate :-)
