August 26


On August 26, I posted to friends:


"I am thinking of rowing across the Atlantic Ocean in 2013. Blame or praise for this idea goes to Nancy Pearl."


One friend said when do we leave.
One said Whatever gets you moving is positive I guess.
And most everyone else said ".....?......WHAT?"

Today I am just finishing up Roz Savage's book, Rowing the Atlantic and I find - after everything I've read - I am still excited at this idea.

Expensive? yep.
Painful? yep.
Unable to really process how much work to do? yep.

But ready to get started.

Today begins my first morning of working out. As it stands now I need to work out to prepare for working out. In 11 days I pick up my water rower.

This might be insane - but really what do I have to lose at trying?
