the heat index was 104 yesterday.
and what were we doing? we were rowing for 5 hours in it. yes, you heard me correctly. 5 hours of rowing. it was insane, but i loved every minute of it. my body was drenched with a mixture of sweat and canal water; i didn't know my body contained that much sweat. i already have sportsbra and spandex tanlines, from one day of rowing!
we combined boys and girls in our boat, which was really interesting and funny. we had fun, but we definitely got serious. i'm so excited for the season to start; this is like a little preview to how amazing the season's gonna be. coach explained to us what each month of our season is going to entitle, and i really can't wait. it's going to be ridiculously hard and time consuming, but i wouldn't want it any other way.
the season starts in november, but lisa and i are going to be working out through september and october to make sure we're in our prime for conditioning and whatnot. we did it last year, and it definitely helped.
