I have also been sick since I got back from my vacation a week ago. Great trip to Brazil, terrible reentry Gave the CTC a go today and very not happy with it but that’s all I’ve got in me right now.

Whoop whoop!!!!, someone with the same thing.....in a nice way. This resulted in me dislocating my hip and trapping the femoral nerve and artery, i thought I was going to be on walking sticks for a while. Holding off for a hip replacement and just doing single leg strength to keep the tear at bay. ...

BTW the Terry update is not good at all - the diagnosis a lung cancer called mesothelioma which is incurable. It is common here in Oz and related to exposure to asbestos. Usually the time between exposure and disease is decades - 40/50 years is the average. Often those in the building trades, those...

This was such a frustrating challenge! I started and somehow got 21 spm on the second interval so had to restart. Then I managed under 1 min for each interval except the fifth, when I got distracted by a spider and didn't get started until a second after the rest ended :evil: Not sure if I'll have t...

Did the CTC today and thought I would row a 2:11 pace as this my current PB for 2000m. But then I saw Sheenas entry today. So I went to my absoulte max, HR being 191 at the end (calculated MHR 185). And took off one second B). Pace 2:06.7. Sorry Sheena! Great job!! I kept procrastinating all month ...

I rowed my first session since one week. Corona infection didn't have the devastating effect I was affraid of. No negative effects on my HR. Rowed 8k UT1 without any problems.

Whoops, just saw this. Glad to hear you are doing well!

Hey Sheena, or do I have to say Dr Sheena? :D It's always good to see someone within reach. This month I won't fight back. Although I'm feeling better my husband told me I'm not allowed to do any rowing training at the moment. Well I have to admit that he's right :lol: I did finish so technically a...

With 3 more rowers we can get a fourth boat off the dock. Massively stressed scrambling for my dissertation defense in a few days, but I finally made it to the May challenge today and... all the adrenaline and cortisol and anxiety (not to mention all the sitting and lack of physical activity recent...

Oh no, sorry to see you go Elizabeth! You're an incredible rower, excited to see what you do moving forward! I thought I would get this month's CTC out of the way while already sweaty and tired after playing tennis for 2 hours, not realizing that we are now missing our top female rower! I'll see if ...

A full recap of the marathon is in the endurance thread in the training forum. Here's the session, and I did indeed end with a full-out sprint - https://log.concept2.com/profile/1558013/log/68739755 This is absolutely crazy! Congratulations! Really interesting what you posted about the strong fan h...

I was dying during that CTC challenge. Really need get back on the erg more regularly, because the October CTC (3 x 2 km / 2 min rest) will definitely kill me

I kept putting off the June CTC until I almost forgot! First time on the erg since the May CTC so not loving my time but it was actually a pleasant row so maybe I'll get my act together and row a couple times a week moving forward :lol: Another suggestion for August (which may be a little cruel): 2 ...

In other news, I'll be doing a 24h solo row this weekend. Apart from a little cash being rounded up to help fund cancer research, I'm starting to regret it already :D Congratulations on your 24h solo row--250706m! :shock: Quite an accomplishment! WOW that's incredible! Great job! Do you have a link...

Hi all! I have not totally disappeared, but yes, a health flare up has stopped me from doing much. But I got a CTC entry in there and I am planning to get back on the erg a little more regularly now that the physical fatigue is starting to ease and excited to get a little competitive again :D . Hopi...

Love seeing the sibling rivalry! My older son Kyle rowed again...shaved off another 7 seconds, with I think puts it out of reach. My younger son Josh is going to give it one more try tomorrow. I am facing reality, and admitting defeat...although also very much love watching the sibling rivalry :-) ...
