Lightweight Eats

Have you ever had to duck into a Starbucks in the middle of your run just to go pee? Yea, me too. It's one of the nice things about running. When you're on the water rowing, it's tough luck.

I've had a few uncomfortable morning rows before I learned to not drink anything with breakfast. Caffeinated beverages are by far the worst, although the occasional mug of hot cocoa was acceptable for short rows. The mornings of 20 km workouts, though, even cereal milk was too much.

So, while I have some freedom in my workout schedule, I'm enjoying some of the simple pleasures in life. This morning, I enjoyed a nice hot cup of tea with breakfast.

Who knew something so simple could be so wonderful?
