I just wanted to drop a quick line about my airport training experience. Last night, I flew from DC to Cedar Rapids, IA for work. I was supposed to connect in Detroit and get to IA around 8 pm.
So I coast on into to Detroit to find out that my flight has been cancelled and there are no other Cedar Rapids connections from Detroit. This means I get to spend a lovely 3 hours in the Detroit airport, followed by a flight to Minneapolis and then a flight to IA.
So, what better way to pass time than to train in the airport. That's right, me and my backpack made our way around the Detroit airport in style. By my calculation it was only about a mile and a half of walking - but it helped pass the time.
Of course, the Minneapolis flight was delayed too, so I got a quick training session as I RAN like hell to make my 10:20 flight in the C concourse after arriving at 10:10 in the F concourse.
I made it, but my luggage did not. So I crawled into bed at 1 am after brushing my teeth with the free hotel toothbrush that is about as soft and smooth as sandpaper. Cross your fingers that my luggage comes in today, so I can spend some quality time with the hotel treadmill in my workout clothes tonight and do some real training.

That is one crummy airport experience. But if you had to be stranded in any airport, Detroit's not too bad. You've got the fun monorail, the awesome fountain, and of course, the pb&j place.
I'm glad your luggage finally made it!
