I love this story.

I especially like your take-away; can't change the past but can make changes going forward. That's wisdom.

The plan today is a 2.5 to 3 mile run and 20 mins on the stationary bike

Sometimes just showing up is all it takes.

I had a hard workout yesterday. I was supposed to just take it easy. I was at a grocery a few blocks from my gym, and I had brought my bag. I figured maybe a short stint on the treadmill or even just a sauna. So I showed up.

As usual, I peeked in at the pool to see if there were any lanes. I have seen maybe ONE lane ONE time this year. Our municipal pool is temporarily closed due to deferred maintenance making the facility unsafe for humans. I often peek in at the pool, and if there's lanes make a plan change and go swim. I hate waiting for a lane. There were THREE.

I put on my jammers and went out. My second favorite lane was open. As I was getting ready, a fellow got out of my FAVORITE lane. I got in. Eventually the lanes got full, so I offered if someone wanted to share mine they could. My gym used to require folks to share lanes. A year or three ago, the changed the rule; if you have a lane, you're welcome to share, but you aren't required. I figure it's nice to share. A fellow hopped in for just a few laps, then another for about 15 minutes or less until another lane opened. So I got in a nice hour swim with a variety of strokes, sometimes just goggles, sometimes mask and snorkel, sometimes zoomer fins. Felt good.

I haven't reported in for a few days, and kind of mostly haven't worked out. But boy, have I been shoveling/sweeping snow, mostly at the friend's house where I was cat-sitting.

I did do a short 10k +3' stationary bike ride on Valentine's day, 102W average, over 80% Z, remainder below.

Saturday, did some shoveling, didn't track the time, probably 45-60'.

Sunday, about 1:16 moving snow around.

Monday, more snow, 49'.

Today, friend was coming home so I was more thorough (I have an AWD small SUV, she has a small 2WD sedan), about 2:49 shoveling/sweeping snow, and chipping ice.

Tonight, rowing team practice, the usual warm-up, stretching, pause drill and stroke progressions to start, then 4 x (1500m on, 3' off), with a strokes per minute rating increase each 500m, except a decrease on the last piece. As usual, I rowed at easy pace through most of the "off" bit. I forgot to wear the chest belt so don't have fully reliable HR data (too much arm flexion, so the wrist HRM drops out sometimes) but it looks like at least 13' Z4, 16' Z3. I did see it claiming 120bpm at some points where I know it was higher. Wrapped up with some more stretching.

Thought tonight's stationary bike ride might be poor, since my legs still felt a little cooked from the unusual activities of the past few days - I was already up to 456 Garmin intensity minutes for the week just from Monday/Tuesday - but it was OK. Back at 60' + 33' CD, 96W average, 16 pseudo-miles at 15.2 mph, overwhelmingly Z3 . . . plus another 125 intensity minutes, Garmin says.
