It is entirely within the time frame allotted for the trial, isn't it? ranger

Dwayne, Do you always favor doing your first 500 so quickly?

Go figure. ranger

Congratulations Dwayne !!!! Incredible time! I hope that you will be included on the USIRT. (I would think people could understand an exception being made in this case.) David

If the USIRT staff sees fit to make an exception then so be it. If not, then there will absolutely be no hard feelings. They have their policy in place, and it has been made clear to all that are wanting to go. Dwayne

Tuesday 28th 5:30am 15000 @ 20spm / 110df - strapless; easy paced - George

Yesterday, 10 reps of 3' @202w (2:00 pace) and 18spm (drag 93 strapless). 1' rests. I really like this session and have had it in my core sessions for a few weeks now. Probably a few more weeks here. I'm normally ingraining 10mps (a great blend of power and endurance for 2k racing/training), but have been on a little detour/phase simply working on my drive power (above all else). I'm certain I can replug into 10mps work again soon and may be better off for it. One thing is for sure, 10mps, once considered a "heavy" workout is nothing. A good thing, I think, to get behind you.

3k warm up today and trying to get more power in the stroke so did 3 x10 mins at 22spm (ut2) with three mins rest 2.07.4 spm 21 2354m 2.05.7 spm 22 2386m 2.06.0 spm 22 2377m very pleased... with these... also loosened me up. 2k cool down 12117metre total ... will do interval session in my break at 0100hrs

Started a "6k period" now that I'll hold for 6 weeks or so. A submaximal 6k once a week progressing in intensity and percentage of max effort. I have done this twice before with 10k's and I really like the type of plan. I will accompany my 6ks with easy 60min pieces as before, and a submaximal 6mile run once a week. First 6k was at 263.6w = 21:59.0 wich is actually a tangented PB I believe but it was so long ago I did a 6k. It felt _very_ relaxed. 25-26 spm. Next week will be 265w target and then so on according to how it feels. I don't follow this lay up strictly, there are a lot of calls for 500m sprint competitions and so on water right now and also when in a team boat there are some burst of power during long tours, but I think that only does good as well, maintaining strength a bit and having more fun. Good feelings are very important to build up your body and want to keep training I believe. It also makes training a more natural thing to do in terms of "life management" or what one should call it. Well, enough rambling from my side.

Had a little dabble today, back held out . Have had to change my whole style, looks very strange, hence a lot slower can't pull any sort of low split at all. Looks like I will be getting the wooden spoon for 2K & 5K at Cambridge Sir Pirate
