Prague Skyline

I’ll start with the highlight of this post. Some great photos of the Head of Prague race. Somewhere among these boats is us:

And here we are rowing towards the turning point. Notice the Prague castle and cathedral in the background:

Yesterday, I got my annual influenza vaccination with the recommendation to avoid exercise for two days, so I skipped training. Today, I did the 2×20 minutes of steady state prescribed by our club Masters training plan. It doesn’t sound like a lot of volume, but we do very long warming up and cooling downs so all in all it was 15km of erging.

Here are both 20 minute pieces compared.
