    I walked a little over 2 miles before work this morning and I just finished a nighttime yoga practice.

    7165m rowing bow in the quad. (This is a 4-person rowing shell, 2 oars per person, i.e., sculling boat; bow rower still responsible for steering.)

    Something went slightly wrong, causing the boat to pull gradually toward the center of the river, especially on the West to East leg of the row. Usually, I do minor steering by myself (pulling harder on one oar or the other while keeping them at the same relative angle to the boat), only using the rowers (also to row harder on one side or the other) when there's need for faster turning. So, I spent at least half of the row pretty much rowing hard with right side (arm/leg), and lightly or not at all with the left. Still had to call for hard on port (our right, boat's left) *a lot*. That was . . . interesting. 😉

    I think we might have had something stuck on the skeg (fixed fin on the bottom of the boat that keeps it going relatively straight, mostly), because the situation improved when we spun at the East end to go back to the boathouse. We hadn't hit anything in the water that vibrated the hull, so maybe just snagged some weeds or something like that - it doesn't take much. 🤷‍♀️

    Hardish day scheduled but I had a minor headache. Decided to try it and see and ended up with a decently hard AT session of 7 X 4 hard w/ 2 minute active recovery.

    I ran 5 miles, alternating between "high tempo" (difficult pace but not miserable) and easy pace. I walked a little bit in between intervals because I couldn't breath right.

    Saturday
    10 mile walk.
    I then played with a 24 kgs kettlbell - a 22 minute walk with it; then 100 swings.

    Sunday
    I went around my little brother, and had a go on his climbing wall. I did not climb well.

    I then did a walk, getting around 13 miles done.

    Was s'pose-a-be rest day. Was actually an easy-pace 11.8mi bike ride at Kensington Metropark, where I went for a picnic meet-up with my SE MI Elder Orphan group buddies, then a solo bike ride after, as long as I was there. It was a lovely day, and fun, and not any kind of majorMajor workout, but li'l ol' lady quads do need the occasional rest day. Planning to row tomorrow . . . . 😆

    I am teaching Bodypump tonight and am still tempted to do an upper body day at the gym but know I probably should not given such a short recovery window. 9-10 hours may not be enough time and I could crash.

    Hard short interval day. Did 16 reps of 1 minute easy, 1 intermediate, 1 all out. First half on the LateralX (Bowflex Tread Climber that goes up and side to side both) and the second half on the AD Pro. Another 100 degree day today, hopefully the last one! So no rowing on the deck again.

    Mornings are getting cool, so it won't be long before we're in the 80s and 70s for highs.
