But it means you can update them whenever you want, as you know you can

Exactly what I was going to say.

Yeah that’s true. Hopefully. Lol

I’ve got a couple questions around seat pads and hand chalk if anyone has any advice. Firstly around seatpads. I’ve always used a Hornet Watersports seatpad, it’s only very thin but has always been ok for me. Even on my 50k which was getting on for four hours it was fine. However today on just 25k I...

8 x 500m 3r, 5 x 750 4r and 4 x 1k 5r are all good intervals for 2k training. So you"re going twice as far in total but at a slightly faster speed than 2k with enough rest. If you want to make it even tougher you could cut the rest to 2r, 3r and 4r. Kerry has nailed it. 500s need to be 2k -5ish; 75...

Didn't break any speed records but thanks to that January Team Challenge I rowed a total of 837,401 meters in one month, which included back to back 1/2 centuries on Jan 29th & 30th. That's going to be a tough endurance record for me to beat. Jan 29 3:53:37.2 50,000m 2:20.1 127 737 22 129 46:44.0 1...

Annoyingly it felt harder than I was expecting. Not sure if the body is still tired from the January escapades. I can 100% guarantee that your January will have taken a significant amount out of you. You'll also probably be suffering from post challenge blues. When you achieve such a significant ta...

Practice is definitely vital. You need to adapt, mentally and physically to the effort. Is r26/27 your sweet spot? I did my first FM at r27ish, but my PB was at r24. I'd definitely recommend doing a variety of different sessions at different paces / effort. Don't fall into the trap of thinking that...

Does anyone have any advice on how I can move my marathon PB from 3 hrs 14 mins to sub 3 hrs?? For some context I did my first marathon a couple of months ago. Finished in 3 hrs 14 mins which was a 2:18 pace. A couple of weeks later I did my first 50k in 3 hrs 49 mins which was 2:17.8 pace. I have a...

After over 1.2million meters, 100+ sessions and about six months of reasonably hard work, I finally hit a sub 7 minute 2km last week!

Congratulations!! Great milestone to achieve & really enjoyed reading about your journey.
