Woke up at nearly 4 AM to catch a very early morning flight to DC. By the time I landed, frankly, I was yet to wake up 🙂 It definitely did not help think thru a gnarly business related challenge I was trying to figure out how to navigate. Fortunately, there was time between landing and the first meeting. Changed clothes at the airport and put in a quick 5K at Rock Creek Trail before taking a shower and showing up for the meeting. I was not only awakened, I also knew what to do with the business problem I was dealing with. 
It is amazing how focused your mind becomes once you hit a lonely trail where you are ever aware of a root in the ground that can trip you up or a darting squirrel that can frighten the bejeezus out of you…
