Tokyo Drift

Time: 29:01
Distance: 4 miles

Arrived in Tokyo after nearly 24 hours of traveling. We got to the hotel, checked in, dropped our bags, changed and met down in the lobby for a jog. The Ivy League runners on the trip are Pat Tarpy and myself (Brown), Steve Sundell and Jonathon Marcus (Columbia), Max King (Cornell), Alidair MaClain-Foreman and John Traugott (Harvard), Courtney Jaworski (Penn), and Ben Stern (Princeton). Its a good group of guys. The flight was ridiculously long but I was able to get some work done. At one point Tarpy came over to my seat and we were looking at the map that shows our progress. We were somewhere over Siberia, had both watched Knocked Up, bits and pieces of Die Hard and eaten a couple airplane meals. We were still 5 hours from landing. Luckily we were 35 minutes early. Must have had a tailwind. Our running loop in the evening was around a block near the hotel. Nobody wanted to venture too far in fear off getting lost the first hours in Tokyo. Probably smart, but boring. My legs actually felt pretty good on the run.
On another note. I can barely read how to post on this computer and typing is next to impossible. Every once in a while the keystrokes switch to Japanese characters and its a bitch to switch them back.
