Honolulu, HI: I was up late last night at a customer dinner and had early morning meetings so I didn't run until the evening.  It was high 70's and windy a beautiful day.  I felt good and ran easy most to the way.  I did the loop up around Diamond Head to get in some hill work. As I was coming back around Diamond Head the sun was setting over the ocean which was beautiful.  I have another customer dinner tonight so will probably be another late night.  With the time change I am struggling to stay awake during these dinners.  Last night I didn't get finished eatting dinner until around 3 am EST.  The body is definitely not used to that.

Let see, sunsets in Hawaii while the company pays for dinner then you run around Diamond Head...I think I will go back to bed, you need to just stay up after all! ;-)

Not fair. I'll trade the 70 degrees for the 3 degrees here. Have a great time and enjoy yourself.

It's a rough job but someone has to do it! Truthfully, I will be really glad to get back to cold Indiana.
