I'm a former rower, looking at getting into some other form of competition after "retirement" from my pastime of the previous four years. I'm dedicated, but a little held back by my formerly 215lb 6'7" frame.

Half hour dreadmill, can't complain too much with how it went. Massage did wonders, and certain other unhealthy body habits were controlled. Going to go for a slow mileage build, which worked in the spring, and hopefully peak for a half marathon in January.

Home loop, felt stiff, but I had done a two hour trainer ride an hour and a half previous. Legs feel great after massage on Sunday! Hopefully this keeps up!

Five on dreadmill in the stuffy Seattle U rec center; always have to go a little slower here.

Dreadmill. Heart rate was pretty high, but I did a brutal bike trainer interval set 4 hours prior.

5 easy, then 10 strides in racing flats. Hopefully the rain lets up so I feel marginally motivated to race tomorrow.
