Happily, today’s workout turned out to be longer than what was “agreed on” in yesterday’s imaginary conversation with my heart/subconscious.
Up on the mountain it was. Out of reach and trying to dictate that today’s workout should be a brief 200 Calories on the SkiErg and a couple 1,000 meter rowing pieces.
Rather than follow yesterday’s suggestion, I spontaneously opted for not 200 but 201 Calories on the SkiErg. Not much difference on the SkiErg. But then that was followed with not merely a couple 1K rowing pieces, but a full 10,000 meters on the rowing erg.
Right after the 201 Calories was done on the SkiErg, I decided to row 10K before something changed my mind and got right to it.
Along with deciding to do 10K, I decided that the pace goal would be 2:15 or a little faster.
Yackey-yacking with the heart and/or subconscious was avoided today and neither of them seemed to make a fuss. Perhaps they were sleeping in?
The resulting pace for the 10K rowing was 2:14.7 and it felt good.
Happy rowing to you!
