I flew back to DC on the red-eye Tuesday night, and grabbed a little under two hours of sleep in doing so. After I got home, I caught another two hours of sleep, then went into the office. (Yes, I’m insane.) And at the end… went running with Mark and Julie. Uggggghhhh. Heat + jet lag = disaster. I was exhausted when we were done, and our times slipped steadily throughout the run*. My only consolation (and it wasn’t much) is that my running partners were struggling, too. Oh well, tomorrow’s 16-miler should be a breeze in comparison.
