Missed workout

I was travelling on Sunday, so I missed my long distance (LD) paddle. Shoot!

Today, I planned to do my LD workout: 2 HR on Lake Bonaparte (no GPS and no HRM) at comfortable pace. The first hour went well. The wind started to blow in and give me some great practice surfing waves.

As I started to make my way around the lake for a second time and I heard loud noises, which I I originally thought was a nearby army base (fort drum). The US army practices their maneuvers nearby and at certain times of the day a person can listen to the sounds of various artillery. When I saw flashes of lightning, I knew the difference and cut my 2 hr paddle back to 1 hr 10 min. Dang!

So much for my LD paddle ...
