Warmup Needed After Workout

The view from where I sat while warming up after today’s morning workout.

Today’s workout was done all in one session, almost first thing in the morning after getting out of bed. The idea was to get it over with. The session was 11,490 meters on the rowing machine. The distance of 11,490 meters was my daily average distance for the previous rowing season and it was chosen as this season’s minimum daily distance.

Afterwards I felt chilly so I poured a cup of coffee and went outside to warm up. The outdoor temperature was 102 F in the shade (38.9 C) but I wanted even more heat than that, so I unlocked the back door of the truck and climbed inside to sit with the cup of coffee and then closed the door. It was quite a bit warmer in the truck, since the truck was sitting in the sunshine.

It felt very nice and toasty warm like a sauna. By the time the coffee was gone I was warmed up and went back into the house.
