This morning was exceptionally tough. We walked deep into the night last night and I (Sam) was struggling hard with chafing. James left about 50 minutes before I did. The big Motivation of the day was that we would be sleeping at a hotel since we were in the city of Indianapolis. We also wanted to arrive in the afternoon to maximize our time in the facility. I listened to a lot of MadMen (the television show) Deconstructed podcasts to get me through the day. Each recording was 45 minutes, good for a little over two miles. The afternoon was hot, reaching 92 degrees Fahrenheit (felt like 102 according to the weather app). This was especially excruciating when I imagined James lounging around in the cool hotel room while I was still an hour back. I had him send me some videos of the room to get me excited. I eventually made it to the Fairfield Inn around 4pm and immediately took a cold shower. We then put on Spider-Man (2002), a personal favorite, on the hotel television. We each got dinner near the hotel, and came back to watch Spider-Man 2 before finally hitting the sack.
