Tidied some last bits and pieces up at school this week, and currently about two hours from boarding the second (16 hour) leg of the flight home. Turns out the gym at Dubai International isn't quite what it's cracked up to be. Doesn't have an erg for a start, so I was forced to do some cross-training. There are dumbbells up to a respectable weight, but no bench, and an OK set of weight stack machines which are inexplicably numbered 1-12 rather than marked with their actual weights. But it passed the 9 hour layover fine. Not that I spent the entire time at the gym. I had a go at sleeping but decided it wasn't going to happen. Not sure how I'll go about training in the next few weeks, I'll just see how it goes.
