No run yesterday- left at 6 am for airport, flew to Maine to meet with customer, got to hotel late then did some work till 11, then laid in bed awake until 4 am, at which time I got up and left for return flight. Upon getting back to SC, I went straight to work and didn't get home till 5:30 pm. So it's been a long 36 hours with no sleep. 

We did play frisbee today, though, even with all the rain over the past 2 weeks. Good game of 6v6, including 2 new people. My team won 5-3 (surprisingly), then we lost 3-1 in game of 4v4 (also surprisingly)

Lunch 5 on kinda muddy GE trails. 8:30-ish pace. Hot and humid. Don't think I saw a soul or animal on the trail.

Lunch- 12 people showed up for ultimate on a warm, very humid day. The teams were evenly split. Much sweat was profused, much running was done, many good plays were made. A game was fought, with neither team ever able to gain an advantage of more than a single point. The final point was particularly hard fought, with both teams having many chances to vanquish their foes. But in the end, there could only be one victor. It was my team, 5-4.
