Sunday’s row had me as one of the strokes, but I was out of my element after months of not having rowed in seat 4. My team was very supportive and patient with me, though.

Before he even woke up, I got up at the crack of dawn to take the early morning row. My knee had been bothering me for a few weeks when we were off, as I think I was losing muscle. Since we resumed our vigorous practices, no more knee pain on my long-standing bone spurs which developed after my dislocated patella back in 2018.

You’ll see a crazy kayaker with a paddle in one of the pictures. He flew along despite the major white caps we encountered.

Sunday row (corresponding with video above):

We rowed and we saw a porpoise! It came up to breathe three times when we were rowing, so of course, as usual, the seals and other marine life we see all happen when we’re rowing and when I cannot film.

Double row on a weekday?!?!? It could happen!!!….when the daylight starts lasting longer.
