Great to hear you're able to row again, and 3:25 is a solid result
Cheers Stu - I thought so too!

Great stuff B)
And great result on the 1k given the circumstances!

Unfortunately ... So much drawback this winter, really annoying :cry:
Thanks Sascha - taking time out is certainly a pain in more ways than one as you've been finding out this winter - hopefully you'll get back to some consistent progress soon.

Great that you're back on the iron horse! May many better training days lie ahead for you... :D
Ha! Pleased as I am to be able Justin, I may try not to think about the many training days - just the odd day of glory when it all comes together! Can't imagine 171k in a week - that's a fair month for me!

Not my usual way to post my training in this thread, but this is an exception to let you all know that I've started back post op. I managed to keep myself away for 3 weeks (actually 20 days!) - but have been feeling fine and have been getting on with stuff at home which is always pretty physical so I couldn't see the point in pretending I was "resting". I've done a veeerrry slow 5k. A slow 3x2k 3r. A slow 5k for the IWD. And finally decided tonight to post a 1k time - mainly to keep my participation in the world sprints and Sub7 ITC going. Obvs I realised I wouldn't be able to go my usual full beans. Race plan was to pos split to allow for my lack of fitness. So 100m sub1:40 then 100 each at 1:40/1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8. Hit those targets pretty well and went a little quicker on the last 100 so managed a 3:25.2 overall - puts me 16th for now. Had I been fit and at my best I'd have expected to post a time around 3:17 (which would have been 6th - or 5th ignoring the erroneous top score). Happy enough with that and pleased to be back on the horse... :D
Great to read you're back at it Mike. Onwards and upwards!
