Today’s session was 14K like yesterday’s but was done earlier in the day due to other things scheduled later.
By earlier I mean it was done first thing, before sunrise or breakfast or coffee.
Yesterday’s was in the afternoon.
Like yesterday’s, today’s 14K was done at what felt like an easy, laid back pace and with eyes closed part of the time but I seemed to have more energy and settled into a slightly faster pace.
Happy trails.
Today’s session was 14K at a relaxed, easy pace while listening to music performed by a band of Icelanders. About half the time, the rowing was done in the manner of yesterday’s ethereal session, with eyes closed.

Today’s session was a leisurely 12K. For most of the time, I rowed with my eyes closed, as a dreamy way to experience ethereal rowing…
A few times during the session, there were text messages to respond to. During those brief times, I opened my eyes and rowed one-handed.
Happy trails.
Yesterday’s rowing session wasn’t posted so this post covers yesterday and today. Each of these two sessions was done while watching a video and focusing on the video, not the rowing.

Today’s rowing was an easy half marathon which was done while watching a baseball game. The Diamondbacks were ahead in this game from the time I started watching and rowing… and they stayed ahead and won the game, so though I rowed leisurely like yesterday, it was done with a bit more energy than yesterday.

Today’s rowing session on the Concept 2 erg was a quick and easy 10K to the accompaniment of a 2:12.8/500m pace boat. That pace of 2:12.8 was easy but due to the warm room temperature, I needed a sweatband to help control the sweat which eventually appeared and bathed my head and face. Its a good way to help clean out the pores and stimulate circulation.

Today’s rowing session consisted of a single 10K piece. It was done with a very moderate target pace of 2:13/500m and no target heart zone. Heart rate never rose above the top boundary of heart rate zone #1.
Happy trails.
Today’s rowing was an easy 30 minutes while focusing on a video. The video was produced in Canada and it is the most recent of several documentaries I’ve watched which focus on the dangers and toxicity of sugar. It mostly covered what I already was aware of, but there was one new test result which I hadn’t yet heard of: sugar causes a degree of dementia.
I already had enough reasons to do all possible to remove excess sugar from my diet, but that fact alone would be sufficient reason.
Happy trails.
