A Better Kind of Sunday

It is a few days into this phase of remembering what it feels like to look after myself, and it is actually pretty good.

It is Sunday today. I got up, had some breakfast and watched a bit of telly. I have a presentation first thing tomorrow morning, so I knew I had to do some work today as well.

It would have been very easy to sit on the sofa all day. It is raining outside, the rest of the house are happily relaxing and doing their own thing, and the path of least resistance was right there.

Instead, I reminded myself what it feels like to look after myself properly.

I went out to the shed and did 45 minutes on the rower. Now I am set to sit down and do a couple of hours on the presentation so I am ready for nine o’clock on Monday morning.

All checked in, all good. I am rowing well, cruising well, pulling decent speeds at a low stroke rate and generally getting faster with better technique. The Sub-7 goal is still there, and it is coming along. It is probably time to do a 2K test soon and see where things are.

For today, though, I am just glad I did not spend the whole day on the sofa. I moved first, then I worked. That feels like the right order.

This is The Sub-7 Experiment.
