It all began in Tachikawa
In spring of 2017 we traveled together to Japan for work. This was Srikrishna’s first visit to Japan and was looking for a way to get through the jet lag. I’ve done a few of these trips, it is hard to jump right into the technical meetings when your brain is still somewhere over the Pacific. A good morning run tends to help me reset or at least wake me up.
And so I invited him to join me for an early morning run to shake out the cobwebs. 5 Marathons and thousands of miles later, we still find good company in each other during our runs. Great conversations, raging debates, teaching and learning moments, and horrible puns filled those miles and continue to do so.
Throughout the ups and downs of our lives and the world around us, these runs and conversations are a treasure to me. And through some goading from our wives and friends we started this site to share some of our more memorable discussions and debates.
