    2 hours clearing trees and moving them up a hill, clearing brush, etc.

    Taking a break, fueling up, and going back out soon enough.

    Not a work out, but coxing for the first time ever. I didn't hit anything (we row in a river with numerous bridges and there were a few large stumps that needed to be avoided), got okish at calling pieces, and docked without incident. And my boat (which was a B boat) "won" our last race piece, but only because our coach called the second one later than he wanted.

    TL;DR: no workout but much success.

    Awesome @aokoye! My workout today was much less of a workout and more of a mental health exercise. I spent an hour on the water kayaking by myself. Got some great pictures out of it. :) And I spent the day cleaning, so it's been a productive day.

    Kudos. I think coxing is good (informative, educational) for a rower. Every rower ought to do it now and then, IMO.

    Thanks @AnnPT77 and @JustSomeEm ! My club uses a spreadsheet to determine who is up to cox next (based on how often you've come to practice and when you last coxed). I was second in line and we needed two coxes today and thus (normally we need one to two depending on how many boats we're taking out and if our normal cox wants to go out in her single instead of coxing). Given that I row sweep three days a week, I'll likely cox once a month or so. It honestly was a lot less anxiety provoking than I thought, though I'm very glad it was light outside and my stern pair were very experienced and helped me out.

    It was definitely trial by fire, but it was totally worth it. Plus now I'm not really nervous about coxing!

    My body is saying rest! I'm taking my time over coffee and will go noodle around the garden for a couple of hours listening to an audiobook. I might take a walk later, or I might hit up the mall depending on how I feel. I'll probably do 20-30 mins of yoga/stretching at some point.
