I’ve just noticed quite how wasted my left thigh muscle is now in that photo. Jeez.
Is it mad that my brain is telling me
I look fat in this photo?
I picked up my shiver squad badge at the lake this morning. 30 winter swims from the beginning of November. I absolutely love swimming in the winter and it’s a pleasure to be a part of this wonderful community.
I don’t even like cold showers, for goodness sake. This is my third year in a row getting this badge.
5k time trial on the erg this evening at s/r 20. 40 seconds quicker than yesterday, tough but paced reasonably well. My hr touched 170 though, which tells me I’m not quite over this cold just yet.
Done. I reckon my anaerobic threshold starts at about 136 bpm and I’ve really struggled to get there. Maybe I need to be braver and not worry so much about the volume to come.
Just back from a fairly early and cold coaching session. A good turnout, so felt well worth it. Now a quick cup of tea and a turnaround to rowing. Forest are playing at home this afternoon, so it’s 30 minutes at anaerobic threshold on the erg in the rowing gym, which sounds horrendous.
Sometimes I workout just to keep people around me safe 😊
