During last weekend's Women's Volleyball World Championships, I didn't sleep for three or four nights from nerves and later the excitement wore going down until Tuesday, so I'm used to it. Now I can relax a bit, although it's difficult.

So how long will the American be out front like this?

 

Edit: Apparently she likes taking the lead.  This is on her Wikipedia page, about her race at 2023 Budapest: "Sullivan took the lead in the first section of the race in the hot weather. The field of elites at one point was nearly two minutes behind her as the announcers told her story and she reached unimpeded for her water bottles. She faded in the later miles to finish 58th in 2:44:24 while Amane Beriso took the win in 2:24:23."

Just started to look tired now

For LA28, it will be nice because events will start around lunchtime for me (East Coast...3 hours difference), but won't finish until 1 or 2am...but I am a teacher and have summers off, so I could stay up late each night...

Not lying, when I was younger it was much more easier. Vancouver 2010 I did not sleep 16 consecutive nights and still felt well, not sure I will be able to repeat the same achievement for LA though

And what part of the USA are you from? Because there's as much difference between New York and Hawaii as there is between New York and Rome
