    1200m swim!
    I was super surprised I swam this much without feeling super dead. My strength training has definitely helped me through although I'd describe this as cardio first I'm sure I'll feel it tomorrow.

    Nice easy 40 minute trail run after work. Took the dog, who enjoyed it as much as I did.

    30 min. elliptical followed by a few minutes of ab work (boat pose variations).

    Slow and steady.... trying not to murder my knee while I improve fitness. This working from home thing and not exercising for almost 2 years has not been good to my body. :/

    Had to take yesterday off for a contractor at my house. Decided to do a 2K X 4 (3:30 rest) row on the Concept2 today. Been a while since I did that torturous workout!

    Did well for where I'm at now. Averaged 2:09.1. Nothing close to my old times a few years back but not far off from last Summer's best when I did a 2:08.7 average with way more cardio back then. So the strength work does seem too be slowly paying off.

    Burned around 800 calories for 55 minutes. HR hit 94% max on last one.

    Nothing original for my strength training today:
    3 sets landmine deadlifts
    3 sets barbell bench press
    2 sets cable lat pull-down
    2 sets barbell shoulder press
    2 sets Bulgarian split squats
    2 sets cable rows
    2 sets dumbell side raises
    And then some hanging exercises, trying to build up to pull-ups.
    My cable rows and lat pull-downs seem to have stagnated while everything else is still progressing.

    Nursing a strained glute so anything to strenuous this week is out. Sticking to about 4 mile daily walks at 4 mph. So not taking it to easy.

    Lower body workout. Bulgarian lunges are killing. I'm pretty sure I've never been sweating like never before during it. Heart rate went waayyy up so 💪💪

    Gym last night at PF. Same routine as normal -- 8 sets of chest, legs, shoulders (compound movements), mixed in some abs and back extensions. Ended with around 8 minutes of Stairmaster at a pretty rapid clip.

    Was just turning last night to walk down the steps and had a sharp pain in my right knee. It was sore, but just a bit, when I woke up. That's my knee that I was told 15 years ago needed a total knee replacement and normally doesn't hurt me, so that's something I'll monitor pretty closely. Hoping to put off replacement as long as possible.

    10K before lunch. Had another contractor over to give me a bid and had to cut it a bit short.

    A stressful day today: a morning of work meetings followed by a two hour job interview with case study in the afternoon, with barely time for lunch.
    I planned to do a long run before dinner, but my lack of food intake or perhaps general fatigue probably got to me.

    So I ran 6.5km in 48:36 with two walking breaks.
    And then, to compensate for the shorter run, 1947m on the Concept 2 in 10min.
    That's me wiped out for today!

    Yesterday was a rest day (by choice) and today turned into a rest because of storms most of the mirning.

    6.8k in 3-seat of the quad. (I like being in the engine room: yay!) We got some decent splits, for our average age (around 60-61) at steady state (i.e., sustainable easilyfor the duration of each piece, which are about 1/3 the total distance, 1/2 the distance, 1/6 the distance, rounded (or thereabouts) - we go continuous dock upstream to bridge, take a short water break at the spin, go continuous down to the other bridge, another spin/water break, back to dock.).

    5.09 mile walk after, still in 50F-ish temp, and in Fall gloom with what I'd call . . . large grain humidity, I guess? Mist? Dunno. 3.4mph moving average, regardless.

    Resistance training focused on core, glutes and legs along with some upper body sets as preparation for the coming ski season (yay). Then 30 minutes on the Stairmaster.
