Walking wounded over here today--I was dumb and didn't do a cool down after. Ouch.

Congrats. <br /><br />If you'd have just edged me out by a few seconds I would probably be on the erg right now trying to earn back my CTC spot, but I am fairly sure that's a bit too steep of a goal for me this time! But I can be a sucker for punishment, I may have to take one more run at it yet....<br /><br />Do you think you can take off another 10 seconds and catch Lady Tracy before month's end?<br /><br />- Krysta<br />

Then again, I didn't think I could take 10 seconds off last time--that was the goal, but I overshot it by 16 seconds. It really helped that my sister was there to holler at me at the end. Until 500 meters to go I was just shy of the goal, based on the pace I was at. I've never had anyone even around when doing PBs before. I had asked her to do a count, but she didn't even know when to count, which I thought was hysterical. So she just yelled GO and Go FASTER and at random moments--but just having someone there helped me not to listen to the little guy in my head yelling "QUIT before your stomach comes out your nose!"<br /><br />I don't even think I could take a second off.

Carla, you are getting a lot more out of the Model C than I ever could. Maybe I should have kept it??<br /><br />Many congratulations on your time. It takes me 5 more minutes than it does you. You go girl!!<br /><br />grams

New PB in the 60min this morning, had to blow off some steam from the bad day yesterday. (I locked myself out of my car and I got a ticket for having a headlight out!)<br />14132 is the new one, ave split is 2:07.3, I think the ave spm was about 22...<br />Not a terrible improvement over the last best at 14099, could still easily go faster tho.<br />I find that Rammstein makes good music to erg to, at least for me <br />Keep on erging, it's a good time of year for it!<br /><br />Heather

And I totally agree about Rammstein for erg-tunes. Du Hast! I have no idea what they're saying, but it sure sounds good. <br /><br />I also like System of a Down for rowing. When I do my hard 300m intervals I listen to the song, Revenga, over and over. (I have to use earphones, because it's not really baby-friendly music)<br /><br />- Krysta<br />

Well, I did the CTC 6k again this afternoon at 23:52.5 (5 sec PB). I made a valiant effort to catch you, Carla, but it was in vain. Still, I am glad I tried. I wouldn't have got this latest PB if you hadn't provided me the incentive. <br /><br />- Krysta<br />(Swamp Hen)

But we have slipped to 4th and I want to try to regain our spot. I'm going to really have to work hard to get psyched for this. ughgh<br />

Now I gotta get on that machine and try a 6K for time ... you have me motivated!<br /><br />Happy New Year ... Mark<br /><br />PS/NB -- I know it's early for you, but check out the two 2K "tests" I have scheduled in January for 1300 GMT on the 7th and 21st. Maybe you can get them in before the 'lil one awakes.
