90km on the SkiErg this week. Tidy butt. Feel decent. Another 66 mins tonight doing more water intake practice. Then loads of steps up again. The SkiErg.

If the world is getting a little too much may I recommend the inexplicably obsolete word β€˜latibulating’, from the 17th century? To latibulate is to find a cosy corner somewhere and hide in it.

SkiErg. Friday’s festival of fun. 2 and a half hours. 32km DOMS were hitting me hard. Today was to practice the feeding protocol that @SteKairos built for me. Apart from the gym being like a sauna… it was decent. Nice and slow and found the way. Cheers man. I feel good. πŸ‘

Much fun was had. Pumping iron. Then: a shed load of weighted step ups because I love them. The late nap before helped .
