じょんのび　onsen

今日は今年三回目の八方台ヒルクライムに参加するつもりでしたが大雨で中止になりました。

久しぶりにじょんのび温泉へ！"じょんのび"は新潟の言葉ですね。"ゆっくり"という意味だそうです。今日はリラックスタイムを過ごしました。

2回ルークくんとお風呂入りました。ルークくんはお風呂に入って、水風呂に入って、露天風呂に入って、楽しそうでした。

1回一人で入りました。SEAN KELLYのサウナトレーニングをしました。

95Cの サウナに6分＋水風呂2分 x 3 SETS

新潟はたくさん良い温泉がありますね。新潟は最高です！

Today I was due to race the 3rd Happodai Hill Climb of this year. Unfortunately it was canceled due to the heavy rain we've had all day.

Chance to make a break for じょんのび　onsen! "じょんのび" is Niigata dialect for "ゆっくり" or taking it easy. Today I did just that and relaxed the day away.

I went into the baths twice with Luke. He was in and out of the hot tub, in and out of the cold tub and in and out of the outdoor bath. He was really enjoying himself!

I had a chance to go in on my own as well for a bit of SEAN KELLY sauna training:

95C sauna （6 mins) plus cold bath (2 mins) x 3 sets

Niigata's blessed with onsen choices. That's one of the reasons it such a great place to live!
