I've been training 6 to 8 times a week for the past 4 months and dropped my rate 24 2k from a 1:54.4 to a 1:47.6
7:37.6 in late August 2024 to 7:10.5 on December 12th 2024. I'm happy with my progress even though I went one stroke over rate on the piece. I have to do a better job of locking in on the 24.

While I agree with the controlling your own environment, I actually found I always hit PBs at competitions. You get that adrenaline rush and the overall atmosphere seems to help. I remember hitting a new PB for several straight comps.

I've always been a bit surprised by that. Racing starts, hot dry air and adrenaline working against me have always been an issue, but having said that my 2k PB was set at a race, so maybe you've got a point

The other thing is I would always be in my best shape and would have trained for the comp., so it was just executing.
