May The 4th Be With You

may-4th-2017

Though it’s not my custom to celebrate Star Wars Day, this morning I was reminded about it and thus the title of this post. The above image was found at THIS SITE.

Today’s rowing was scheduled online less than 20 minutes before its scheduled start time, so it was no surprise that nobody noticed it and joined in.

It was a distance of 10,500m at a very leisurely pace.

Happy rowing to you.

Rowing As A Way To Rest

These rowers are resting from rowing hard. I rowed easy, while resting from pushups.

Today’s rowing session was only done during times for either warmup before or rest between pushups sets.  The reason for doing so was to keep the total time required to do both pushups and rowing down to a minimum.  Previously, I had spent the time by walking for rest between pushups sets.  By rowing instead, I got the same number of pushups and overall rowing meters for the day, but saved at least an hour of total time to do both.

The heart strap was not worn until after all the pushups reps were finished.
