5K was 20:36.3

Today I got 20:11.5.

I think I WILL get a sub 20!

Good Job Bryan!

Congrats! 20 minutes is right around the corner.

Non rowing/erg related. I deadlifted 465 pounds for a 5 pound PR. A small improvement but an improvement none the less.

I know this is rowing related website, but I wanted to brag somewhere. Thanks for reading.

Good luck. Making it to the 20s would be great. That's my goal too.

And of course, you are right, I need to work on endurance.

Thaks for your interest,
Jacl

If you don't mind me asking Jack S, what are some of your other times? I haven't done a 500m all out in a very long time, and the closest thing I have done to it was 2min all out which resulted in ~1:34 I think. My 500m is my best distance. My others are(don't remember decimals): 1000m 3:27 2000m 7...

The last couple of times I've erged, with the PM3 programmed with single distance, the meters countdown stops with one meter left. On top of that, the time display doesn't show the tenth of a second. To get my final time I have to go into the memory. It showa full time and completed distance there. ...

500m 1:31.6 (previous 1:31.8). Done after relatively heavy weight training session (worked up to 415x3 in deadlifts)

Not much improvement but a little.

Same questions about the fitness numbers.

As far as others, 7:40ish (howver I am cionfident I willl be sub 7:30 next time I try a 2K), 215ish 47yom.

A low pull? - The lowest 'pace' reading you can achieve. Sammac112 I presume wasn't talking about the first pull, but the lowest over a combination of strokes, always a challenge.

Thanks.

Sorry for the newby hijack........ What's a low pull?

That is great! I can't help but wonder if part of his motivation is competing with you. Is he gunning for you? Nah, kis doesn't have a competitive bone in his body. I wish he was though. What gets to me though is thought that he might be doing this just to have some common ground with me. Thanks fo...

Thanks for all the support and info everyone. It is helpful.

and I couldn't be happier! He'll be 13 yo next month. Never before has he been interested in any kind of athletic or physical activity. Today was his 3rd workout on the erg. He only did 3700m in 28 minutes, but still, I am proud of him. I just need to find a way to be supportive and encouraging with...

Thanks Bryan.
