Thank you Naeem and Imran

To this day about 20 years ago I was introduced to two coaches of Pakistan Railway’s track and field team. Naeem and Imran, who thought me everything I know about running and endurance. Twenty years later when a thirty seven year old overweight, out of shape, father of three outpaced and out endured a young twenty four year old who shall not be named and who incidentally also refused to be photographed for this investigative piece of journalism, I realized how enduring Naeem and Imran’ training was.

For the record it is not how old, how fat, or how out of shape you are; it’s all about what is wired between your ears.

Rumor has it that there will be a rematch soon on the ground of our new campus once the young twenty four year old has recovered from his traumatic experience.

    What is it worth to the 24 year old for me to keep my mouth shut about his identity? And when i say ‘I’ i am sure there are a few of us who recognize who this character is. Well???? And btw Jawwad, good for you!

    Ever since i bragged about it on my blog, i have sprained my knee. So not in a position to accept any more challenges. Old age has its benefits…
