Early today after the morning alarm woke me from sleep I saw an alert from the Strava app, that someone had made a comment. So I opened the app and found that Frank, a guy with whom I had rowed many Concept 2 rowing-machine online rowing sessions while he was on the other side of the world, had commented on my yesterday afternoon running session.
His comment was simply, “You keep going!”
Instantly, his comment “came alive” with memories of the experienced efforts of many rowing sessions of all sorts (except the very longest ultra-marathon variety) which I’d done with Frank and others.
His words were nice… evoking pleasant memories… though my running session yesterday was much shorter and far less effort than most of those rowing sessions had been… his words seemed to somehow connect yesterday’s run to yesteryear’s rowing.
Thank you, Frank.
