New Personal Best! Brag About That New Pb!

[HornetMaX]

@HornetMax: sub 7 is never a walk in the park

For most. But for you it now is ... I mean, you have more than 5sec/500 to spare: if it's not a walk, it's like jogging at best

[Dangerscouse]

Today was undecided which test to do on the rowerg, 2k vs 5k. Not a rest day since 23th August so need one shorter.
New Pb on 2k rowerg!

Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M Hr
6:37.2 2,000m 1:39.3 357 1530 33 178
1:39.4 500m 1:39.4 356 1526 36 172
1:39.3 1,000m 1:39.3 357 1530 33 177
1:39.8 1,500m 1:39.8 352 1511 32 180
1:38.7 2,000m 1:38.7 364 1552 32 184

Excellent result. Not surprised, but it's still hard hard work to actually get it done

I knew you would get a very good result, but it's important to note that despite what a load of numbers could look like, it's never easy, even if it feels manageable

It is never ever easy and I like that. If it will ever feel easy, I wouldn't do it, that's why I'm in endurance sports

Totally agree. It never gets easier, you just get better, and that's how it should always be.

I know this feeling well enough
It needs a balance between stress and calming down again.

Wow, I didn’t even realise these kinds of times were possible on skierg! Good effort mate.

[Dpoleit89]

@Sakly: the problem is working 7/7 10 hrs per day till Christmas but I have to mantain my volume of training because on 10th January will start ski marathons race season

@ahooton: thanks mate!

Oh boy, that sounds mad!
Luckily I don't face much stress at work currently. Had enough few weeks ago, so it's nice when stress releases a bit. Hope for you it will get better in January

I managed a 2K PB today at the BRICs in Birmingham getting an improvement of 0.9s with a time of 6:45.6. It was my first ever indoor rowing competition. This morning I would have said I'm not doing this again, but I think I probably will
