This week I started a new five-week training program to get in shape for rowing. So far it seems like it’s going well. I was a bit apprehensive about it because last year I trained harder than I’d done before, and there were many days when I felt tired and stressed, rushing to do everything on the schedule.

I expect it’ll be easier now that I have better baseline fitness and know what to expect. Just as important, this season I plan to get more rest and manage my time more sensibly. No reason to let it scare me!

  1. I like the turtle in the image, it reminds me that slowly we can get there. Perfect for your words.

    • Thanks! I was thinking more about how baby turtles hatch and then immediately leave the nest. But you’re right about traveling slowly, too 🙂
