Time Flies Like a Horse With Wings

A horse with wings, almost beak-to-nose…

Today’s rowing session was 9500 meters with eyes shut while maintaining a constant, easy, good-feeling effort level.

Time can seem to drag if rowing at an easy, non-racing pace and watching the distance count down to zero.  But time seems to fly by if I shut my eyes and count strokes until I reach the total of what it should be for 1,000 meters, then open my eyes to check progress, then do the same thing for the next 1,000 meters.
