Today there was some necessary work to do on the roof and because it had to be done in time so that it would have a few hours to dry before the afternoon rain arrived… I had to do it in the middle of the day.
I weighed myself before and afterwards, because that’s a more reliable measure of dehydration than the feeling of thirst. I was 3 pounds lighter after working in the sun on the roof, which translates to having lost 3 pints of water.
So I sat around in shorts after finishing the roof work and cooled off while replenishing those 3 pints before doing today’s rowing.
Today’s time on the erg was a very easy 10K. After the 10K, I was once again 3 pounds lighter! Though the rowing pace was very easy, the room was a wee bit warm…


Happy trails.
