Greenhouse gas and stiff knees
My electronic ticket said United Airlines, but all four legs were in Lufthansa planes. Lufthansa was okay. Except for the distance between seats in economy. Anyone over 6′ would have knees touching the seat ahead in a normal seated position.
Somewhere I read that United is having a tough financial time. Maybe they leave too much space between seats.
The people at Avis no longer had any economy cars when I arrived. So they gave me a Mustang. The car seems to have an unnecessarily big engine, and unnecessarily small windows. But maybe there are a lot of guys a few years older than me who come out to San Francisco and want to drive like Steve McQueen.
My training mostly went to pot this week. I have not slept enough. Normal, easy pace felt tiring. Plus, I ate too much, and not very well. Tossed and turned one night with leg cramps. Probably not enough fruit and vegetables.
