    Stationary bike, 16,409 meters, very very easy (another of those "right after full breakfast" things), but pushed it even less than usual, only 1:18 in Z3 (2%), rest Z2 & below.

    A few rounds of sun salutation before that breakfast. Have been doing daily meditation for about a week, too, but that's not really a workout unless mental counts. 🤷‍♀️

    Back to spin/core class after two weeks off. 75 minutes of spin was fine, but I struggled during the 15minute core routine that followed. No surprise, there, I clearly have work to do after slacking off.

    Rowing machine revisited, 8,159 meters; the usual recent 3 x (2k on, 2' off) + 1k + 3' CD, no particular split/rating goals other than staying at base intensity. Ended up 2:34.3 pace/19spm, so mostly 10:17-ish times for the 2k pieces, whole thing Z3 and below.

    Mostly focused on relaxing all of the body parts that don't need to be tensed to do the work, while trying to keep good general technique (especially sustaining the forward body angle appropriately).

    Like Mike, I'm working on the Concept 2 Challenge as impetus to consistently put in the meters. Unlike Mike, I was lucky enough to not get Covid (so far), so I'm at 131,373 meters and on schedule for my 6 day per week plan so far, with these lower meters daily. (I'm alternating C2 rower & C2 bike, because both count, though bike meters count half vs. row meters.)

    @Mike, @Ann - The rowing challenge sure seems like a great motivator. We recently had a "Where are you planking?" challenge in our trail running club, with pictures posted to a FB page daily. Planking indoors, outdoors, on the roof of a house (picture taken by a drone!), on rock walls, on ships, paddleboards, in the surf, group planks, etc. Some posters included their length of plank holding time, making it competitive. End result is that I've never done as many planks as I did in October.

    I'm starting to add extra warmup movements on trainer days at the gym. Today after foam rolling and dynamic warmups, did 15 minutes of :30 fast/:30 slow intervals on the treadmill. Result was feeling much better when we started the regular training session. Did rounds of kettlebell work, balance work, band pulls, bridges, bear crawls, etc.

    Elliptical fun! 30 minutes in zone 3 with 2 min. on/2 min. off intervals into zone 4 for the last 10-15 minutes. Felt good. And the extra calories allowed room to share a frozen treat with my kid as a post-vaccine celebration. :)
