Currently over Mitteleuropa on my way back home from Firenze.
We had a flight delay because the airspace was so crowded.
The summer invasion of American tourists is in full swing and
on the streets of Firenze I heard Americans talking as much
if not more than Italians. It's a beautiful city and I wish I
had more time to see it. The lines for most of the major
attractions were terrible though! I didn't want to wait so I
skipped the museums and spent my time enjoying architecture
and gardens. Next time I will try to come in the off season.
But the race really made it all worth it! I feel stiff and
tired today, but no blisters and my nipples are surprisingly
fine despite the complete failure of the supposedly "water
proof" bandaids I spent way to much on in an Italian
apothecary. I am really looking forward to my next ultra in
August in Utah. Best way to spend my 40th birthday in my
opinion. And that will be quite a bit hotter than Tuscany was!

On this flight I actually got a lot of work done...
