Rowed my first half marathon yesterday. Time = 1:24:52.3<br /><br />I would have been a bit faster had I not stopped to fiddle with my heart rate monitor once and to change the channel on the TV. Excuses, excuses.<br /><br />For anyone that's interested in comparing running and rowing times, my fastest running half was 1:26:40 in April of '05. Otherwise, I'm pretty consistent at about 1:30. <br /><br />I'm gonna have to try rowing on the water some day...<br /><br />M38, 6'3", 175 lbs<br />2K, 6:58.2

Nice PBs from lots of people.<br /><br />Especially noted are Dougie and Mark - I will update the web page soon.<br /><br />JBD, nice HM and nice comparison to the run HM pace. Post it in the runners thread as well, might generate some discussion.<br /><br />Me 7:06.1 at WIRC improve by 0.9. Quite pleased to PB given the lack of erg training. Even more pleased to have got a bit of motivation back again. How long it will last , who knows

Friday afternoon I went to the gym again and the two model Ds were in use. So I jumped on a model C, set it up for 1K, did no warm up and pulled a 1:30 on the fifth or sixth stroke. So I held it there and pulled that PB for 1K by accident. <br /><br />Not bad for a warm-up row after a long session in the morning.
