Run!

Morning run at JHU Night run at JHU


I could run a half-marathon before but I can hardly run 10 KMs now. I try to once or twice every week, but these mostly end up being short 5K runs. For a 5K run, I time at 5:30 minutes/KM on average (sorry for the folks following this in the US (read: wrong) system of measurement).


Read!

Current books on my reading list:

  • The Vegetarian by Han Kang
  • The Dharma of Unfaithful Wives and Faithful Jackals by Wendy Dongier
  • American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis
