So nice to be able to do this at home, in my nice cool basement. Doesn't hurt that the machine I bought has the ability to sync up to an app, so I can do online workouts or watch videos and listen to music without having to wear earbuds, too.

Tinkering with the seat position while waiting for the erg tablet to charge a bit.

swimming 35:00 [3] 1.3 km (26:55 / km)
Wasn't 100% sure I'd be able to make it today, my meetings seemed to be spaced out at sub-optimal intervals, but finally got out of my last meeting at 10 to the hour, so grabbed my stuff and got to the pool as fast as I could. There was no one else there, as usual, so I was able to sign in and get in the water only a few minutes late.

rowing (erg) 36:00 6.8 km (5:18 / km)
Played around a bit with the tablet and app that came with the machine. Not a bad app, a one year subscription came with purchase, but I'm not at all sure I'll renew after this year. Those subscriptions are probably much better with a treadmill or bike, seems a little limited with the rower. Still, lots of pleasant videos of rowing on the Thames, so that's nice.

rowing (erg) 34:56 5.2 km (6:43 / km)
So, the gym opened back up for active duty today. Fortunately, I didn't have to go. I realized over the past few months that the only thing I really missed about the gym was the rowing machine, and maybe the weight machines. But I didn't miss the heat, the stale sweat smell, or the 8 TVs all set to fox "news". So a couple weeks ago I broke down and bought a rowing machine for the house. Much better!
