Nobody Dies Tonight (ePub)

"'Nobody Dies Tonight' is a collection of articles written by the

author between May 2020 and April 2021 to serve as a fitness

manual created by a runner during the Covid-19 pandemic.

It is a humble tribute by him to all those who supported and

encouraged each other to create a better world during the

pandemic. All the articles were related to fitness and running.

The author considered with deep conviction in his heart that the one

probable reason why he came out a survivor in the pandemic was his

penchant for running since 2008 as a 48-year-old.

It took a certain amount of courage for the author to wake up early

morning and run solo on remote roads, roof-tops, terraces, parking

lots and inside his home during the lockdown. The author wrote the

articles with three basic aspects in mind. One, to cover the scientific

aspects of running, like running posture, running cadence, mechanics

of breathing, lactate threshold and maximum oxygen uptake. Second,

nutrition was covered under myths on carbohydrates, importance of

vitamins and minerals, vegan diet and eating for better performance.

Third, being a 60-plus runner, he made sure to include subjects on

exercise and longevity, importance of sleep and the older runner.

He was also candid enough to give his own interpretation of the

pandemic both during 2020 and 2021 separately related to running.

There was also a common-sense approach to selecting running

shoes, understanding diabetes and a controversial deliberation on

blood doping."
