I gave the 100 meteres another blast today. Got a slightly higher Drag factor due to the moisture in the air on a wet day. (206 from Tuesday went up to 209 today....yes I need to vacuum clean it!) Moved the footstrechers up a bit to 4 holes showing. Started with a fast stroke forwards so a faster fi...

Nice! That's some good power, especially in the LWT and 65-69 group. I see the 1:33 going down!
