Double PB weekend :)

Sat: New 5k run PB at Parkrun (23:32)
Sun: New 5k row RB at FoolsFestSprints virtual race (19:11)

Doing them back to back prob suggests I should have room for more in both too.

Faded after the half but I hit my target of sub 7.
Very painful :mrgreen: .
You've clearly got a very good engine, but it's still not easy to convert that into a sub 7 row.
With 2 months of rowing, I think it will be piece of cake for him, no ? I mean, he has a 6:48 2K SkiErg PB :shock:
My 2k time on skierg is not trained, I mean I’m trained but not for 2k.

I know that 2k on erg is easier but probably I will not row on water in any near future because I don’t have any near school :( .
But I like the rowerg to cross train for xc skiing, I’m gaining good power (also train legs).

New PB on the skierg - 5k in 22:58.

Not a brilliant time on the ranking board, but progress.

Used a higher rating, which seemed to help eliminate excessive leaning.

Well done. Brilliant is subjective, and also, hopefully, a moving target that will improved on again and again. Don't disparage what you've done by comparing yourself to others, as your best is always strong enough.
