4km as I decided to cut it short 1km as I was introducing someone else to the erg and they stopped at 3km.  No worries, but no reason to go the full distance as I was essentially in personal trainer mode.  Last 500m or so I decided to crank harder.

This erg pulls faster than the one at home.

Looking forward to the last day of the most punishing job I've ever had in the Army.

More wogging today.  The road to recovery continues, however slowly.

Rolling the dice with a second run in three days. Let's see how the back fares. I'd be embarrassed with the times except for the fact that I'm basically starting from scratch.

First run since April 25. I'm going out on a limb and trying this as the back was feeling better and I was going to go easy. So I did, in the hopes I'm not getting crippling back pain in the future. I don't really care what pace I was going so long as I got one in.

It also didn't help that the basement was flooded last week and I haven't done any cardio in over a week.  It has been not great.

I was deliberately controlling pace and stroke to stay below anaerobic threshold.  I touched 150bpm just for an instant.  The objective today was to burn lard, especially since I was pulling so close to last night's session.

I have not done shit on the erg. And I'm starting to lard out.

No iThink as I was watching a documentary about a Marine BLT from 31 MEU in Fallujah in 2004 on Amazon Prime.

The Older Daughter just graduated from high school today and I'm still trying to come to terms with it.

I didn't feel like grinding out 10km if I'm going to reattack in less than 12 hours.

First endurance work since in almost a week.  It has been that rough of a week and when I intended to do it last night, I was too exhausted.

I need to get back into endurance work but the liabilities I incur with running are a real handicap.

No iThink as I was watching college rugby Sevens this morning on the glass tit.
