New 5k PB of 18:33 today. Not super excited about this one because I died hard after a fast first 1000m (and was hoping for 18:20), but I'll take a 30 sec PB any day! Learned a good lesson about going out too fast because that was the most pain I think I've ever felt on the erg.

Sorry for posting so much here, but did 1000m today and posted a 3:14.4
This was the last time trial I'll do for a month or so! So I won't be spamming this thread for a while

@ Dangerscouse: Thank you! I was pretty happy with it myself.

1st 2k time trial today!
Hit 6:57.3, with pretty even splits. 1:43 for the first and last 500s and 1:45 for the middle 2.
Pretty happy with this. I didn't even have a good kick left so I definitely went 100% all out on this one.

@mitchel674 :
I just started rowing ~1.5 weeks ago so haven't been doing much! Been following the Pete Plan so far.
I'm also 6'2, 19 y/o, and coming from about 4 years of competitive distance running, so that probably plays a factor in it!

Rowed my 1st 5k today, that was tough! But it was a good mental workout if anything.

Doing a 2k soon, hoping for sub 7.

First week rowing and first workout on Pete plan...8 x 500 (3:30 rest). Looking foward to doing more of these.
