Interesting. Blob down, muscle up, water way down. I drink a ton of water, too, so that’s surprising, but it was also hot yesterday. I’m trying to remember if I drank any soda yesterday and I don’t think I did, I had a little on Saturday. Medium walk last night, took dogs to the park, came home and rowed a hard twenty minute session (#34) and watched some videos on proper form since it’s been awhile and you can always learn new things. Up until now, it’s been about survival, now, we tweak things for better form.

Plan is to work a half days this week. If i get up and start working, I don’t waste the day like I might on a weekend. I also have all my annual training courses to complete before August, and time is ticking there. Anyways, lots to do in less time today, so press on, press on.

Row #33 on the books, another ten easy minutes just to be able to lay the claim of 90 days properly. I say easy, but it burned 70 calories, so that was a much better investment of my time than say, sitting on the couch. I also did a gentle swim which included an intermission of sorts as my goggles broke right in the middle and aren’t fixable. I don’t think I’ve ever had that happen before. I ran inside the house and found my backup pair and finished the thirty minutes out. Numbers are unremarkable, but I finished it rather than calling it a day and sitting in the bubbles. Time to order another pair of goggle this morning. The backup pair is even older than the pair I was wearing, so who knows how long they’ll last, but good enough for now. 840 strokes, 9.3 METs, says average heart rate of 131, but that doesn’t jive with the actual splits, so meh.

Pretty happy with the progression on the rower. I’m not looking to do anything crazy, but it will come in handy should I get another invite to go sea kayaking again. Where I really feel it is in my legs, it’s evening out the muscles in my quads which have been dominant for so long from walking the hills around here every day. Not complaining, those hills are my salvation from lethargy and depression. Simply put, walking is my daily salvation and the dogs are comic relief. The rowing, entirely different thing. It’s a good place to channel the energy leftover from the workday. My legs are looking leaner and my posture is definitely improving. The kink that I’ve been getting in my neck is also bugging me less. Cardio is also better and I can feel that in the swims. It’s really hard to put into words just how bad sitting at a computer all day every day is for us. We follow these trends of “broccoli - the hidden killer”/s and people jump on the bandwagon and adjusts their diet, yet it’s the lack of meaningful movement that’s killing us. Not something you can fix with a magic pill or order of foods on the plate. These are my feelings for me only, but I know I’m correct in what’s right for me. Sciatic is also a symptom of sitting still too much. We press on. Forward only. Learn from the past, don’t dwell in it. When I write these things, they are observations, not criticisms, we all have our own challenges in life.

Finally, we walked to the park, I am still hurting, but it’s bearable and the dogs needed to get out as much as I do. That was a promise I made when I got Sadie and I do my best to honor it no matter who the current tenants are. My little section of Balboa Park is overrun with influencers lately, who else would be so emboldened to stop traffic by walking across the street ten times in order to look natural. The photographer and assistant were what gave it away. There was another girl with her phone overly dressed for my section of the hood doing the classic duck face pose in the golden light just before sunset. She was smart enough to know how to capture the light, I assume. I have decided to capture these creatures in the wild for the amusement of myself and my friends since it is a fairly recent phenomenon. The only place they irritate me is when I’m trying to shop and they’re blocking the aisles at our tiny Target for the perfect shot for the ‘gram

Finally, other than the limitation of a cell phone camera, we were being greeted by a neighborhood canine friend in the third story window of one of my favorite houses. She’s such a sweet creature with a big voice, and I just love her barking her message out to the world from the absolute best lookout post in the area.
