It's a nice sunny day at last. Fahrenheit high in the 50s. The last of the snow and ice is quickly disappearing.
My abdominals have been wicked sore since I did my new strength exercises on Tuesday. I did a light version of the strength routine and then headed for the river.
I paddled for 60 minutes, doing a set of 30-second sprints at four-minute intervals during the half hour from 0:20 to 0:50. I haven't wanted to admit it, but this is a tough workout. I got in eight sprints, and during the last several I was debating whether my form was holding up well enough to continue. I did finish it out because as a kid I was taught that that's what tough guys do, but I need to pay attention to my mechanical quality when I do pieces like these.
