When I used the search terms “Ten K Rowing Online” to find an image for this post, most of the results were photos of JK Rowling, who is totally irrelevant. But the above image is nicely relevant, as far as the rowing aspect at least.
The 10K which I did today was indoors and via the internet but I had to row it alone because the 20 minutes advance notice I gave for scheduling it in the online listing wasn’t enough advance notice.
Happy rowing to you.
Today’s rowing training session was not, because the last session of the 12 week training schedule was supposed to be the day before yesterday. The last session was not done, however because the day before yesterday was spent applying roof coating and getting thoroughly dehydrated in the process. Yesterday there was no rowing, because most of yesterday was spent with walking at the county fair.
So for rowing today, I simply did a moderate 6K, plus 4K of warmup/down. Before the 6K, there was a strength-training/pushups session. Both are documented below.
Happy rowing to you.
There was no rowing done today because I spent almost all day on the roof, applying roof coating. The temperature started at 93 degrees and got as high as 96 degrees before I was finished for the day.
My morning weight was 179.7 lbs and after finishing with the roof work, I weighed 172.4, a loss of over 7 lbs. And – yes, I did drink water throughout the day.
Happy rowing or roof coating to you.

Today’s training session was only 2K and it was patterned as 2x100r750 within that 2K. In order to get a few more meters and bring the total up to around 10K, it was supplemented with another session. The supplemental session was 7K done online with another member of the RowPro Rowers.
Happy rowing to you.
Although I’ve been rowing every day possible, for some reason today’s energy level seemed higher than the past few days. Maybe it was the spirit of TGIF, boosting the energy.
Before rowing, there was a strength-training session of push-ups. The thing that takes the longest about doing the push-ups is the rest time between sets.
The rowing today was a rest-and-recovery 6K.
Happy rowing to you.
Today’s training session was done very late in the day and it was done in the spirit of taking it easy.
Happy rowing to you.
To be more specific than today’s post title, there were no oars to bend, because today was another day of indoor rowing. But if today’s rowing had been done OTW like those in the photo above were doing, no oars would have been bent, like you can see the oars are being bent in the boat in the foreground of that photo.
It was a rest and recovery row, gently done. It was accompanied by another strength training session of push-ups.
Happy rowing to you.
Today’s rowing session was the same as yesterday’s except for the warmup/down and energy level, which seemed a little higher in the 3×100 part.
Happy rowing to you.
Today’s training session was 3x100r1000 within a 6K. I wasn’t inspired, stopped a few times and did quite a bit of rowing with only one hand while operating a remote control with the other.
Also did a strength-training/pushups session.
Happy rowing to you.
It goes without saying that solo indoor rowing requires no teamwork. But the team effort of a rowing crew sure does look like fun.
Today’s training session was not done as training. It was done very lazily, just to do the meters. It was supposed to be 4x1000r750 within a 10K but I just did it as a very easy 10K while switching from one youtube video to another.
Happy rowing to you.
