I've emailed Daren and Bernard/Prufrock to see how these guys are. As soon as I get a reply I'll let you know.

He's just fine. Typical three year old. The only time he stops is when he's sleeping.

<span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:red'>new 30 min PB!! 7336 m</span></span> <br /><br />This was just meant to be a good workout, not a PB attempt, which it wasn't, until the last split. I gained 45 meters, 2 places on the C2 rankings, and 1 place on Nonathlon. <br /><br />Anyone going to do Challenge #4? I'm probably going to try it tomorrow night, and may have to do it again on Saturday if I'm not up to snuff.

well done Carla...... I am going to have my work cut out trying to catch you up when I get fit ...

Hi<br /><br /><br />Working long hours, finding my feet, houses, no erging. Things are starting to settle into a routine a little so I am joining the gym next door to work on Monday. <br /><br />Hopefully, I will be able to restart training for the coming autumn competitions. <br /><br />I hope everyone is well. <br /><br />Niall and anyone else who tries to contact me should use my yahoo email address which is blbaptiste@yahoo.co.uk.<br /><br />Have fun.<br />Bernard

FANTASTIC PB CARLA!!<br />You really seem to be in form right now (and long may it continue!). Go Girl!!!!<br /><br />Bernard/Prufrock!!!! You're alive and well!!!! HOORAY!! I was starting to worry about you mate. Glad to hear you've been busy so I can catch you up on the Team Standings (very British of you!). <br /><br />Nothing much more to report from me othe rthan I did a 3x2000m (6mins rest) yesterday. Managed to successfully maintain the target pace within the HR threshold so well pleased.

You're so gutsy. <br /><br />How's the leg coming? I know your cast is off, but last I saw you weren't allowed to row until maybe the 28th? YOu must be very impatient to be yourself again! But be careful! <br /><br />I bought Xeno Muller's rowing DVD and it's got a section of one legged rowing, which is just so much fun, as you know. I discovered the weirdest thing doing it. My left leg mostly does all the work when I row or bike, and it's easy to see that because it's much more muscular. But when I did the one legged rowing as in the DVD I found that my right leg is much better at high stroke rates. The left one, by itself, feels like it doesn't know how to push. I feel like my legs came off of two different people! Which must be how you feel right now. <br /><br />It's been a year since I broke my left wrist, and it still hurts when I put a lot of weight on it, for instance, if I do pushups. Fortunately, in rowing it's just a nice straight pull and no push, and on my bike I use bull bars now most of the time and only go into the drops if I feel like really hauling. <br /><br />Hang in there and I'll be watching for you to pass me up.

I started last week working 5 hours a day on top of still homeschooling my daughter in geometry, algebra, and Spanish, and playing in both orchestras, and practicing about 3 hours a day, so my rowing is now always starting after midnight and I've got to get up at 6:30 or 7. So this one will have to be on Saturday for me, too. Everything is so new and confusing at this job and I'm trying to learn everything at once , new software, a whole product line that I have to take phone calls about and all kinds of paper work I'm going nuts time for BED. <br /><br /><br />How shall we keep track of the right time for this #4? Can you set intervals as long as 5K and can you set rest times as long as 5 minutes? That would be the best way, I guess, if it works.<br /><br /><br />
