My friend, business partner, and former running buddy passed away suddenly yesterday at the age of 38. I was about to head out for my run when I got the call. I had just two weeks ago published a story on how we started running together, and we were talking about those days the day before he passed away. I have been meaning to share the story with this community, but never got around to it. I share it today as a tribute to my friend: thecitystory.com/amarsons-g...
Nobody could believe that two such lazy souls would get up early and actually go for a run, but we did. We eventually stopped running, and both started up again in the past few months, although we don't run together any more. I will graduate for him.

Good luck with graduating, I am sure that your memories of your friend will give you all the inspiration you need.

Dear Shivani, this must have been such a shock for you, Juhi and Genesia. Take the time that you need to grieve, but know that, at some time in the future, you will be able to think of Shyamal and smile, instead of cry. Those memories are treasures. Run when you want to, but you'll miss your running buddy so don't run if it makes you sad.
Deepest condolences to you, so Sorry to hear your sad news x
Thank you all for your kind words. I was numb yesterday and it is starting to sink in today. He was the most joyful person who will be deeply missed by the many who love him.
