No rest for relay's 'tourist' delegation

Another great relay. Essentially, that translates as another well-deserved, good night's sleep for me and for all members of the delegation.
Better be more of it, everyone had been joking around from Day 1, but it wasn't until Muscat that we got a chance.
With just 45 minutes of sleep on Sunday, the Omani capital, where we stayed for an additional 24 hours after the relay, was a long-anticipated leg for me. We had been working around the clock for nearly two weeks, traveling the world without a set time zone, and the experience was like driving in the ultra-fast lane. And when moments of relaxation came, no one wasted a single minute. Certainly not me.
