Hi Niall, Chris, Chippy and all, Sorry haven't been sighted much, lack of internet access. Currently in Qld for Christmas visit to Mum and Jenny. Niall - Christmas present for the Taff team - 6K in 21:39.3. A PB by 0.3 of a second on the new model D my daughter gave me for Christmas and they keep in their Physio gym up here in Qld. Can you add me to the CTC thingo if there's any room for another Taff male hwt. Great rowing by all, have a very merry festival season and may 2006 be all you could wish for. Cheers, Martin

If we would have a couple of Lightweights put the effort in then we would have a thrid full boat. I don't need to name names because they know who they are: Is anybody going to Surrey 3 & 1/2? I wasn't going to bother but I have to be at a family birthday in Epsom on Sunday and so I might also make the Surrey event. Merry Christmas to all Team mates. Is anyone training tommorrow? Somehow I don't think I will get out before the kids are up and I couldn't miss them seeing what Santa has brought. Phil

Fantastic, Speedy! Hope you feel OK today after that one. (Was that at 22 spm? ) Martin, congrats on the new Model D!!! That one is staying at your daughter's so you can row while you are visiting? Nice. And great 6K. I can't imagine the surviving the paces you HWs are pulling. With a few days left before 1/1, planning to give it another shot? I see also Grumpy & Holz updated their 6Ks for Taff Attack. What a team!!! I have emailed Scott D.--he sure looks like a sub 21 6K to me, don't you Taffs all agree? I am finishing my HC this afternoon with hopefully an HM PB; it will have to be at 2:07 or less to be better. Then off to my mom's till Tuesday night, and no rower for 3 days! After that nice rest I will give this 6K a 4th go. No promises but I will do my damndest to take of 10 seconds, that's only .5/500m. I am scared to death of it. If I don't post Wednesday about it I'm probably dead on the rower and noone found me yet. Merry Christmas to all!

Speedy - Well done fantastic time. I'd be interested in seeing your splits and spms if you don't mind posting them. Grumpy - doing a 6k on your 68th birthday - YOU ARE NOT WIRED UP As I promised earlier in the week I've had another go this morning and came in with 20.41.1 (previously 20.49.6) - chuffed with that This stung a little In fact it stung so much you can humour me and read my splits: 1.45.2 @ 28 1.44.3 @ 28 1.44.1 @ 28 1.43.7 @ 28 1.43.1 @ 28 1.39.9 @ 30 Really pleased to have something in the tank for the last 1k. Now Mr T back over to you - it's now your turn to re-visit the pain zone Let's have another few seconds off your time - but please, please, please, please, do not beat my time or that gremlin in my head will be nagging me to try and have another go - I just don't want to go there Gareth - Let's have another big effort and have you go sub 22.00 Carla - Your going to have a crack at knocking another 10 secs off? !! Good luck with that - it would be a superb effort if you could and would give us a great chance of holding on to bronze For a 10 sec reduction negative splitting would me my advice if you need it - 6k is a long way to fly and die. Happy Christmas to everyone Paul

Because I havn't trained for so long Im a bit stuck for what pace to run an all out 6K at. I figure Paul B did a 2k at 1:36.2 pace on 4th Dec. A week later I went 1:43.8 (slower than his 6K today!) for 2k. Today paul went at 1:43.4 ave which is 7.2 secs slower than his 2k pace So my 6k must be 1:43.4 plus 7.1 (just to really get the pain going), which is 1:50.9 or 22:10.8 total (30 second improvement on 1st attempt). There I said it now! Can see why nobody is looking forward to repeat sessions.

Simply awesome time Supreme effort I was reckoning I may be able to get to 20.45 but to beat this. Not sure I want to go there either. Parhaps I will need to forgo the wine over christmas and prepare myself. Merry Christmas Phil T
