I went inside the house where it is slightly cooler to write this. It is 31.5 degrees C on my thermostat.

Romana and I wanted to get up early to row before the heat started, but as we slept very badly (due to the heat), we didn’t arrive at the club earlier than 8:30.

The plan was to do a 1km full speed, but it was changed to 1 minute on / 1 minute off. There were already swimmers, and the sun was very hot. After 7km we gave up.

Just one more night in this oven.
