    Congrats! That's a major milestone!

    Did 55 minutes or so today (not quite a full hour). Around 7500 meters on the rower, then another 10 minutes or so on the Assault Bike.

    Hit a milestone myself that I didn't realize until today. 10 million meters on the Concept2 rower (officially). I likely hit that a few seasons ago, but these are those that I officially tracked. This is over around 7 or 8 years of rowing, cumulative. Will get some shirt in the mail from them likely.

    Long work day made a tough workout. I think I was almost depleted before I began:

    Squats (deloaded 😓)
    Skipped bench press (😑)
    Bent Over Rows (deloaded and worked on form)

    But I did workout, so there is that...

    * Half hour yoga/stretch/foam roll
    * Quick 10.16mi bike ride before going over to help with learn-to-row.

    At the learn-to-row class, I just carried a few boats/oars, rode in a launch with a coach to take some video, so fun but no workout.

    Bouldering, 90 minutes.

    This felt like a pretty good session, although I got very pumped by the end. My crimping strength is definitely better than before. It was my fourth day climbing out of 6, which is a silly level of volume for an old man.

    I got back from bouldering at around 9.30 p.m., and I was wiped out - I barely moved for the rest of the evening.

    I managed a lunch-time walk as well, so finished the day on 18,000 steps. My local park has recently put in monkey bars, so I entertained the local weed-smoking youths by doing a couple of rounds.

    I have a vague plan for my weekly exercise scehdule, along the lines of:
    Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday: Bouldering, aim for 3 or 4 times a week.
    Tuesday, Thursday: Lifting, aiming for 2 to 3 times a week. If my arm pump has recovered, include some hangboarding.
    Saturday, Sunday: Hiking, and/or scuba diving, and/or lifting. Aiming to do something both days.

    This may be too much volume, but my body seems quite efficient at telling me when I've overdone it (and that is not very frequent).

    An easy pace 5k run this morning. I took an extra rest day yesterday as I had some foot pain after running at the weekend. The extra day has made a big difference and I would say I am back to 100%. Will pick the distance back up tomorrow.

    Starting to get a bit antsy after 3 post race rest days, but I've scheduled some minor medical stuff for this week. MD says no running/cycling for a couple days around the test, so I just sit here, lol.

    Set up my "swamp cooler" in the garage today. It came last night. Wonderful addition to the garage gym. Got a late start, though, to my row today. Didn't realize when they say, "it takes water" that it's like 30 gallons of water. After running a few pitchers out, got a huge soup pot out and filled it up.

    Got in around a 5500m row, nice and cool. Felt great with the cooler blowing on me. As an added bonus, likely took like 7 seconds off my pace (measured by time it takes to do each 500m) that I had been rowing for the same HR in the heat.

    Just the half hour yoga/stretch/foam roll today.

    Rowing got stormed out again this morning, other outdoor exercise options ran afoul of intermittent hard rain (yeah, I'm a weather wimp about getting out on the roads with traffic in rainstorms), then I ended up waiting for my lawn guy to arrive to look at the *giant freaking tree branch* that fell off one of my trees last night *into my next door neighbors' yard*. Missed the house, fortunately, looks like minimal lawn damage, and they're being really nice about it. But I let logistics derail further workouts. Tomorrow, I guess.

    Had that happen once and it broke my split rail fence. The poor guy (a younger couple) had just moved in. I made him a deal where if he fixed the fence and I got to keep the wood, we'd call it even. I got like $500 in free firewood and he got off with only like $100 in expenses and fixed the fence himself. Then, I ended up moving (I had already given him a lot of the wood that I paid to have cut up) and gave him what was left of it. Amazing how when two reasonable people get together on things, it's easy.

    Lead the bootcamp workout today morning. Mainly upper body focused. Evening is badminton...

    Did an hour of easy cardio. 30 minutes on the rower in the garage with the new evaporative cooler and then 30 minutes (really light because I pushed the rower just a tad too hard) on the LateralX.

    Golf league tonight. Been averaging around 7500 steps according to my phone on Thursday evenings. Tonight it's pleasant -- 99 degrees. It rained a bit yesterday and everything cools off when we get rain. I know the whole "dry heat" thing in AZ is mocked, but I was sweating at 84 degrees last night with 44% humidity (really high for here). Give me 95 degrees and zero humidity anytime!

    We're excited as it's looking like a semi-normal "monsoon season" with lots of potential rain. We'll see though. We get all of our rain, or at least nearly all of it, within 10 weeks out of the year. If it doesn't rain that much, the desert and wildlife suffer. Last year was the 2nd driest in history, so we could sure use it.

    Climbing, 100 minutes.

    This was pretty good. I went to Croywall for the first time in a while. I got quite a few white routes (v2 to v4), one of which was a flash. A couple more are close, and should go next time.

    MD gave the ok to resume exercise starting today. Easy recovery swim of 1500 yds in the pool. kick/pull/swim, nothing too taxing.

    My coach suggested the next few bike workouts to be done by rate of perceived exertion (RPE) rather than power, since I clearly failed to understand RPE during my last race, lol. Family beach vacation starting tomorrow, which means lots of time to train the bike and run while getting acclimated to the heat. I'll be moving into higher volume blocks in July to prepare for the long course race. 13 weeks until race day.
