<p>Actually, I think it's not a bad idea to begin an adjustment a day or two early. You know if you're the kind of person who may have a minor challenge with time changes/jet lag. If that's the case, then you are correct to consider spending the day or two getting used to the difference. I recall hearing that it was tough for some of the West Coast participants. It sounds like a good plan especially if you think it will make you more comfortable during the week. Enjoy!</p>
