Early 30s, reasonably athletic and trying not to fully transition into the “earn, eat, don’t move” Seth lifestyle that seems to hit right about now. Watching friends slowly evolve into full-time lalas, financially thriving, physically negotiating with gravity. Respect the hustle, just not quite sold on the paunch, bhujia, whiskey and a few puffs routine.
Maybe it’s the years working across different cities, but I’ve managed to hold on to a bit of a sporting routine and want to keep it that way. Also not ready to be that guy whose stomach becomes a Nerf target at family gatherings.
Recently, got into pickleball and it’s ridiculously addictive, social and just competitive enough to keep things interesting without wrecking your knees (literally!!).
Just curious if there are people already playing around DSA (Malviya Nagar Industrial Area), Lal Kothi or nearby or if there are courts/timings people would recommend? Would be great to know:
a. Where people usually play
b. Best time slots
c. Any existing groups or regular scenes
d. conversations, the kind that don’t start and end with your net worth, cars you drive or your HNI contacts and how much their dad is worth.
e. Don’t make excuses (this is not for you)
If there’s already a scene, would love to plug in or build a community.
