Monday #sculling on the Wear, a cooler start to the day than the last couple of days in Sheffield. I think we to the north of the really hot weather. A beautiful quiet morning, one thing I've become aware of, despite the green space there is a lot less bird song than along the stretch of the Don through Kelham.

The planned quad outing with a sub was charged last minute but I got out in a single #sculling on the wear. A beautiful sunny morning, perfect conditions for a relaxing paddle. This afternoon we are off to Sheffield for the penultimate visit while our son has been studying there.

Out single #sculling dodging a paddle boarder and the weed. Distracted by the kingfisher who was very active this morning I ran straight through the weed that has now fully recovered from getting trimmed and pulled for the regatta. A beautiful still morning with a glimpse of the otter at the turn above the clubhouse, I followed it round to just above the rugby pitch but lost it when I started worrying about the shallows. This morning was all about toes and seat bones, the nature was a bonus.

Eine Runde rudern und schauen, wie weit alles für die KiWo aufgebaut ist.

Thing I said to coach as we brainstormed after a crappy row this morning: "we could bucket rig it." #rowing

Another Monday #sculling on the Wear. No traffic but the course bouys were still out. Cool and grey but perfect conditions for a single. Our race plans for the season have been dealt a blow with one crew member recovering from a fall and a couple of broken ribs. I suspect we will be out until the heads season now

I did my 2nd session on the #rowing machine after a double whammy of sciatica and runner's knee! PT cleared me for 1k m on Friday, but I did 6k because I am a bad patient. Very easy. About 28 spm. Knees and back feeling like I did something but nothing alarming. I've really missed it.

My watch die before I finished, probably another 900m past the club and back down again. I stayed below the bridge for my half trip to avoid the buoys and weed on the Pelaw bank. I think the safety launches will be busy at the regatta tomorrow and Sunday as the weed is quite "grabby". A beautiful warm morning promising good weather for the weekend. A couple of college crews were heading out along with I think the university women's eight possibly to practice on the course now it's set-up.
The swans and cygnets are now safely below the first weir so I'm not sure what I'll be doing on my volunteer slot. I guess I'll find out tonight. #sculling #rowing #rowersofmastodon
