I know that I am going to be stuck on a plane for over 7
hours. If you have never experienced
this I can assure you its not good. When
you cross the pond to Europe you leave at night and arrive in the morning. That means you need to sleep. Now I usually don’t have any problem sleeping
on a plane, actually I am so good at it it’s like I have a super power.
On multiple occasions I have fallen asleep after they
have served dinner on the plane and woke up as they were serving breakfast.
When the I land I have had 5 to 7 hours of sleep. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it good
sleep, but sleep none the less. That is
exactly what I intend on doing on this trip as well.
Why not help myself out a little and burn off some of the
nervous energy I have. When I got home I
hit the pavement. I ran as hard as I
could for as long as I could knocking out the first half mile in under six
minutes. I slowed when I started feeling
the oncoming side stitch and leg cramp. Before
the first mile I had to walk for a minute to catch my breath and walk out the
pain.
I then kept up a decent pace for the remaining time I had
left. Eventually doing just over two
miles in 30 minutes and sweating like a fat kid whose counselor just found his
Milky Way stash at Fat Camp. Now I am
ready for my plane ride to Manchester.
With the remaining time I had left I set up my
FitBit. It’s another fitness monitor
that keeps track of you exercise, how many minutes of activity you have, how
well you slept, and so on. I am very interest in taking it for a spin on
vacation. We spend a huge amount of time
walking everywhere and now I will be able to track it.
Daily Recap:
Matt: Run/Walk/Rualk before getting on the plane
