Long day from YVR to Hawaii. Not to sore from the quick run yesterday and I was ready for schlepping mode. I got to YVR super early because I heard airport security was crazy. It wasn't too bad but glad I got there because I didnt have much else to do. Boarded fine but we spent an hour on plane just waiting for the ground crew to push us off. I was watching the time and by the time we took off, calculated that I lost most of my layover in SFO and it was gonna be tight. Now there was little in my control, other than giving myself the best opportunity to get in and through the airport as soon as possible. We landed at like 4:30, and the flight was supposed to close boarding at 4:40 so I had 10 mins. I dont think I actually got off the plan until around 4:35. I had 2 terminals to get through, D to F. The passengers were kind enough to let me up the the door and as soon as it opened I was out. Blasted into the terminal and hit it hard with all my stuff, gunning past everyone and yelling them to get out of the way. I was already dehydrated and the air was dry so I got a little winded at E concourse. Picked it up and came down F fast knowing I was close and I could maybe make it. I came flying in and the gate agents knew I was coming in fast. I think I made it in around 3 minutes, covering just about a half mile. I wasn't prepared to hammer like that but I just did it and was so out of breath when I got there. Very uncomfortable took me a while to catch my breath. So so happy I made it though and it was about as close as you could get with me still having a slim chance. Got to kick back a little on the flight to Kona but that was enough adventure for a day.
