My Pacer: The Ghost Runner. Always tantalisingly ahead of me with a quicker stride and just a little faster… tempting me to catch up with him.

Tempo Fuel was the fueling partner for my Kochi Half Marathon (and the Bangalore Marathon too). Entirely fueled with my Endurance Mix in both races and raced extremely well.
Kochi was particularly important because I wanted to see how our product would hold up in high humidity. It performed well, and my conviction in what we’re building has only grown stronger.
I’m not going to claim Tempo Fuel is better than other brands. Not yet, benchmark isn’t to compete with existing brands. The bar cannot be existing brands, because then the bar isnt high enough!
It’s to do things others aren’t willing to invest in: better raw materials, rigorous independent testing, and complete transparency.
I’ve always believed that if I can’t trust a product myself, I have no business selling it to someone else.
That’s how I’ve approached every company I’ve worked at in the past. that’s how I’ll build Tempo Fuel.
I want to build the best endurance nutrition brand possible out of India, for the world.

Frontier, border and boundary - if loosely used create confusion. Same true for delimitation, delineation, and demarcation.
#WATCH | Pune, Maharashtra | Former Indian Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane says, "...With China, we have an unsettled boundary. I use the term boundary deliberately because, unlike an international border, which is clearly demarcated and internationally recognised, a boundary is more nebulous...Wherever these areas of disagreement exist, we have been having and will keep having clashes. The Galwan clash was just another example of such an incident. However, what is important is that the events following Galwan have clearly demonstrated that, as far as China is concerned, a military solution to the boundary dispute is off the table...We have made it clear that the unilateral use of force to change boundaries or borders is unacceptable. This has brought about a change and given fresh impetus to resolving the issue through talks and dialogue.That is precisely why the mechanism for talks between the special representatives of the two countries is important...The greater lesson to emerge from Galwan: India has significantly strengthened its reputation on the world stage, both militarily and diplomatically, as well as politically"

Ok ok ok. Now, those baying for the blood of the officer who had the courage to call the spade a spade can do with their own research and figure out themselves!!! As a matter of fact, ITBP does a better job than most, and it did save the lives of those who actually messed up in one previous special instance about which most people attribute to someone else!!!

It is the elephant in the room.
Everyone knows about it but will not talk about it.
And worse still, attempts are made to play it down.
All gung ho attitude is reserved for Pakistan. When it comes to China, wring your hands and say “perception of LAC differs, you see”.
Told you so! ITBP DG Shatrujeet Singh Kapur confirms several face-offs between Chinese & Indian troops in Arunachal, including Taksing, which are still continuing. The face-offs were even taking place when Chinese President Xi Jinping visited Delhi for BRICS. #IndiaChinaBorderRow

The DG of Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) has said confrontations with Chinese troops were continuing at multiple locations along the Arunachal Pradesh border. It marks the first official confirmation of ongoing face-offs on the north-eastern border in Arunachal, where the situation has grown increasingly tense in recent months.
ITBP Director General Shatrujeet Kapur said the face-offs have been ongoing since July, when reports emerged that Chinese troops were denying Indian forces access to key patrolling points along the LAC in the Taksing area. "In the past few days, a situation arose where a face-off happened at several locations in Arunachal, and it continues," Kapur said at an annual felicitation ceremony for ITBP personnel.

When you are called crazy for choosing to punish yourself by running on brutal trails for hours together in the woods & mountains, you just smile back without even wanting to explain. What do you know you fools!? Step into my shoes… or my sandals…. and you will know!
Much like what Marcus Aurelius said: “Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is, Smile back.”

Rather learn from the imperfections of great athletes than try emulating their supreme talent! For us mortals, makes sense to learn how to embrace your own flaws & make them your very own personal strengths & one day, you will be your own special person others will want to emulate!

Running different distances teaches you that art of pacing, and Patience. Knowing how fast or slow you should go, building that ability and knowledge how much to press the accelerator pedal teaches you life. Try it.

Everyone wants to be happy. In fact, everyone needs to be happy. We all deserve it.
Just to make sure we don’t need to flip a switch to be happy, it makes sense to stay in that frame of mind all the time. Then you need a little support from the people around us. Helping a fellow human stay happy just takes a little effort. That’s all.

Can’t agree more Keerthi.
And once you train that mental muscle, there is no stopping you.
running a marathon made me much more confident in life than a master’s degree or any self-help book ever could.
if you’re someone who lacks confidence or constantly worries about what people think of you, here’s one thing that genuinely changed me.
three years ago, i was one of you
and honestly, running a marathon did more for my confidence than any self-help book or video ever could
because when you train for months, push through the pain, and eventually finish 42.2 kilometres, you realise something. you’re capable of doing things you once thought were impossible. and that changes how you look at yourself.
you stop seeing yourself as someone who can’t do things and start seeing yourself as someone who can figure things out, push through discomfort, and do hard things.
and that confidence doesn’t stay on the road. it carries into every other part of your life. if you’re struggling with confidence, don’t just consume more self-help content.
go do something that makes you believe in yourself. for me, that was running a marathon.

Tell me something, would you choose an original 2 liner post rather than an entire page of assembly-line words drafted by a AI chatbot? I am not just curious about it, but believe it provides a valuable insight into our own psyche! Think about it....

Well well well!!!
Curious? Not so much!

The curious case of CAPF contempt petition in SC:
After case vanishes from cause list on Tuesday, Justice Ujjal Bhuyan led bench seeks explanation from Registry as to why case “struck off” despite Sep 22 judicial order, directs to list the case at 2 pm today.
Later in the day CJI Surya Kant constitutes a special bench to hear the matter. The Bench will now be presided by Justice Manoj Mishra and Justice Bhuyan. I ✍️
