Famous at last!

You know how everyone else with running blogs gets discovered by Clif Bars, or Mizumis, or other random running accessory places? My blog got discovered today by JetBlue. I am such a consultant. Further details to come (including answers to yesterday’s post) but it’s SLOPE DAY EVE! You’d think I’d be resting, but actually I’m getting my liver warmed up for tomorrow.

Amazing discovery

Oh. My. God. I just found healthy food. At an AIRPORT. I’m in complete shock. I’ll try to put it aside long enough to provide details: Cibo Express, one of those little kiosks that’s near the gates (not in the food court). I’ve never heard of it before, but they sell two packs of hard boiled eggs (I ate just the whites), and bowls of sliced apples with caramel sauce (guess what part I skipped). Hard boiled eggs and sliced apples! That’s like… there’s no way they can add fat or calories or crappy chemicals to that, right? Who am …

So remember how I was feeling a little squished on my Monday morning flight? JetBlue sent me a follow up survey to see how my flight was. I really wasn’t that uncomfortable, but being fascinated with all things airline (I took an airline management course in college and would be very interested in working for an airline someday… or at least consulting for one), I used the comments field to pose some questions that I had wondered about on Monday. What is the policy for asking individuals to purchase an extra seat? Is it some kind of mandated enforcement based …

Great start to the day!

I managed to do a full 30 minutes of running on the treadmill! This is a pretty big accomplishment for me. When I run outside, I can go for hours… but when I run on the treadmill, I get bored within the first half mile and have to force myself to stay on. And it was hot in the gym too so I was sweating a ton, making not giving up even more of an accomplishment. But the best part about my morning so far? My favorite bellhop at the hotel has been out for the last two weeks, and …

Same nonsense, different airport

The other day, at a team dinner, my team had a good laugh when I mentioned the special screening I always get at the airport. It turns out it’s not a function of buying my ticket right before the flight, or that I buy one way tickets, or that I don’t check any baggage, because none of them get it consistently like I do. However, they said a guy on another team at our same client does get it every time, and we had a good laugh over the fact that I must be on some suspected terrorist list. Because …
