Rowing at Sunrise, Writing at Sunset

Today’s workouts were done after sunrise. Today’s blog writing was done after taking this snapshot of today’s sunset.

If you look closely at any sunset, it changes from moment to moment while the overall pleasure of viewing its beauty remains relatively unchanged.

Similar it was with today’s main workout which changed from moment to moment while the pleasure of the effort remained essentially the same. That workout was a 10,000 meter rowing session. It was done at a mostly steady pace and included eight intervals of about one minute each. Those intervals began after the first 1,000 meters and then seven more times at the beginning of each subsequent 1,000 meters.

The last couple thousand meters were done at an effort level that was lower than the average effort level of the first 8,000 meters.

There were six other sessions which served as warmups and warm down.

Happy rowing to you!
