A runinterrupted week

During my visit to Chennai and Nellore, I did not get a chance to run, though I went to the beach a couple of times- a rarity for me. However, I did get to walk quite a bit, especially at IIT-M- a wonderful campus for outdoor enthusiasts. The amount of pollution in the city area is quite injurious- far more deadly than the swine flu virus. Yet people drive merrily and contribute more pollution while wearing ridiculous masks thinking that it is a good protection against the H1N1. Funny aspect of this swine flu reaction is that the flight attendants, who deal with people in close quarters on a daily basis, are not wearing these "protections."
