I felt like total crap today, and part of it a function of lack of sleep. I needed to get out there today, but my knees were hurting (and I am pretty sure it is the shoes, but I'm still holding off on replacing these for now), so I decided to run to the gym and erg out a short 2,000m spin.

I was sitting next to a guy whose form was about 55 shades of fucked up, and if he was on the Concept2 just jacking around (as evident in his 2:45/500m pace), then I was going to go fullbore just on principle.

Thus was the hardest erg I have done in a long, long while. The left foot strap was starting to go, so it was loosening up every 1000m. That was annoying, and cost me a few seconds, but I was awake, mostly after that.

Because I have bloodlust.
