As it turns out, 3 of the other 4 registered were no-shows, so it was just me and Joe Vanischak who was planning 3 seconds faster pace than me, but just having one other is motivating :D regretably he lost his connection 1k in :roll: Anyway, it got me primed and I beat my target pace (which was 1:5...

Well I did my race this morning. Several of you were "there" in spirit and I appreciate that. Somehow I was the one dropped at the start in rowpro. I had hoped as the starter it wouldn't be me. I also hoped that at least some of you would notice I was missing from the race and drop out too. Looking...

my training has really slacked off since the crash-bs. I hope I am still sharp for racing (I think the 1k's helped). tonight I joined Chad for some "fun" intervals online, 4x2k. I didn't get to warm up so the first was slow, but did the rest at 5k pace. We seem to only get 4 minutes rest, which is ...

I am going on vacation for a week next weekend, so that pretty much leaves this coming weekend to get the 5k done. I haven't rowed in a few days, so assuming I get a chance to row hard tonight and thurs, I think I should take my shot on Sat. I prefer morning for PBs, so around 15 gmt is ideal. Anyo...

I was trying to set up a 12k on RowPro but of course the server is down today... So I did it by myself. 12k - 47.23,7 (1.58,5) - 23 spm Perhaps slightly fast for a recovery day but it felt nice. Did the 12 k also - 46:40.5 ( 1:56.6 ) - alternated 1000s at 24spm and 26spm -- felt good whole way, use...

5 k row next weekend

It was great, we all met our targets or beat them by some seconds. I finnished in 10.45, 3 s faster than plan and got a 1.47,5 average. That made me feel confident about sub 1.50 for the 5k, but it will not be easy! Stefan - nice row yesterday- with challenge row in 3 weeks maybe a Handicap 5 k tes...

3k

I hope I can make it Saturday evening! Today I did 12k with a bit of fartlek in total 1.59,5 speed. It was mainly to get back on the erg after four days of travels. I did weights in a gym yesterday and my legs were a bit sore from the squats. I was hoping to do that 3k on Sat also Stefan but I have...

Re: Well done

Easy hour at noon, around 2:14, simple and steady because I had a 3x2000 coming up in the evening. The 3x2000 (on rowpro) had plenty of rest, around 10 minutes (passive + active)between intervals. Target: first 2 at 8:00, then see what's left for the third one. 7:57.1 7:56.7 7:38.2 Pretty pleased w...

Long row Sunday

I did 3.0 - 2.5 - 2.0 k with 5 min rest today. last time I did 1.50,9. This time 1.49,1 with 28 spm. That is a hard workout but probably very good preparation for a 5k. I did my regular long row today - made it a HM - rowed 1:59 overall -- alternated hard 1000s ( 1:56 - 1:57 ) with easier ones ( 2:...
