    For some reason I crashed after dinner. Tried to run the crash away, but my legs felt so heavy and my heartrate didn't come up = had to give up after 3km. Oh well, at least I was out.

    At work, I had 7 hours of back to back meetings, and felt discombobulated afterwards. I decided the best way of recovering was to climb. I got a 75 minute session in. It was really good fun - I was in form. I have definitely improved recently, albeit within the narrow constraints of routes I've made up on my garden wall. It will be interesting to see if it transfers to gym climbing.

    Around half an hour of yoga/stretch/foam roll.
    5247m rowing machine.

    Structured the rowing as 2k, 2k, 500m; just for fun, picked it up a little on the 500m piece, maybe not max effort (only 28spm), but held close to my old 2k race pace (2:10.8 for the 500m) - pretty sure I couldn't hold it for 2k, and should be able to (i.e., faintly hope I could) go sub-2:00 on 500m anyway (dunno). HR topped out at 165, 10 over age estimated max 😆, which is actually around 87% HR reserve. I haven't worked at all on race-pace endurance in a long time, probably have lost leg strength, don't really know what effect the COPD is having (but no exercise-induced cough from the short somewhat more intense piece, which is reassuring). Oh, well.

    Was scheduled to do a 1K TT yesterday. We had a landscaper out that took much longer than expected (poor guy's helper didn't show) and I just had to miss it.

    Wasn't feeling great today and did the 1K anyway. Bad idea. I get milder "rower's cough" when I exert myself hard. This was ridiculous. I got the Pfizer shot on Friday and didn't feel great going into it.

    Time was OK considering (3:52.2 and I never was a great sprinter), but felt horrid after and HR didn't go down like it should. Actually took a baby aspirin worried I was having a heart attack. I think it was just a combination of factors -- pollen, the shot and some exercise induced asthma. But felt rough all evening since.

    I forgot, rooftop yoga this evening as well. Not much for calories, but very challenging (at least for this very non flexible old dude).

    40 minutes into the indoor bike workout this am and had to bail out for work. Managed a 30 minute run this evening before cutting it short again. Work life has interrupted triathlon training this week. I can't let that continue, lol!

    Thursday
    I got an hour's climb in.

    Friday
    I went diving in a puddle to test my kit after lockdown.

    It was muddy, and cold. It was expensive - I flooded my torch battery. But it was still bloody brilliant to get back in the water.

    I then went for a walk, getting just under 30,000 steps in.

    I have some photos, but image upload seems broken.

    Did a shorter, but decent lift (supersetting, not really that heavy), then immediately into rowing intervals (2 X 10 minute/20 stroke rate @ 2:18 pace). Cooled off with another 1K or so.

    First lift in over a week. Pinched nerve last Friday and this Tuesday had a guy over the house doing landscaping in the back (we're redoing the back yard). Felt good to lift again. Feeling sore in a good way.

    Yoga last night was fun. Wife even said, "you're a LOT better than I thought you'd be...". Coming from her, that's a huge compliment. I actually feel like I am getting a bit better at it. I was able to keep up with nearly every move and it's a fairly vigorous Vinyasa class.
