1/6/2023: I'm back! LOL. Went off and did some running for past year. Reason? Mostly because I can. Looking around to see most my age cannot run and seeing into the future perhaps there will come a day... but at present all my joints, lig's and tendons good-as. Sure have share of niggles sometimes but treat them promptly. Still got running goals, but going to try to see if I can put some rowing goals into the mix, so first row back at it today (1/6/2023). Hopefully they're not too counter-productive to each other! One possible advantage of running is just before 1/2M completed this May I went under 75kg! ... dropping 15kg from around 90k ! Yep for the first time since I was about 16 I momentarily became a Lightweight. Was always naturally a medium-weight back in the day rowing! This weight-loss unfortunately wasn't all bodyfat, with about 7kg muscle going with that. Weak as a lamb compared to the mutt I used to be! C'est la vie!

12.6.2021: Well it has been around 23 years since I've been on the water. Cannot believe I am saying that. I've had a (badly treated) skiff parked up on a rack in backyard all this time. Today I sanded with fine 400-paper 1/3 of it, being half of the waterline hull, leaving the other side of the hull and then the whole top deck area to do. There are quite a few impact and scratch repairs to do. Then I'll paint the whole thing. Still haven't fully decided on the colour scheme. I've decided to give it the name Phoenix! ;-)
