New Personal Best! Brag About That New Pb!

5k in 21:03 @2:06.3 df110 27 spm. Down from 21:54 in mid-March. The joys of being a beginner! I was pretty steady. First k @2:05.5. Last k @2:07.2 - died a bit and only a very feeble final sprint. Never mind.

Being outside helped, I think. The gym is next to a pretty birch forest and there was a slight breeze.

Next up: 10k in something close to 43.

No time for the 10k - gym closes early Sundays - so I thought Id have a shot at getting over 7k in 30min. Mission accomplished! 7038m 30min @2:07.8 26spm df110. Up from 6832m. A steady effort without dying or sprinting...

Making great progress mate, and you're holding the pace for longer too.

[Dangerscouse]

This is 6 secs faster than my PB and 3spm slower, and 37 secs / 1spm faster than my last session three weeks ago at this distance. Progress is happening, especially as I almost didn't go this morning as I'm feeling like I'm fighting off some sort of illness, but when you get up at 4:50am it's not really an option to not go after I have had a coffee and woke up

I'm not able to see the image.

Congrats though.

whoop whoop finally cracked my old time from 2015 on the 10k, so now all my PB are dated 2018, summary like this, bought my own rower 2014, set some times 2015, majority of 2016 / 17 was suffering sciatica so very little rowing, started again more seriously / regularly in Jan 18
Got close yesterday, and cracked it today, no alcohol last night, no t shirt in the garden rowing, stayed under the gazebo so i didnt frighten the sun, no warm up other than cleaning the house, must admit i still not sure im as comfortable as i was back in 2015, but i done it.....

Well done!

Every pb apart from the 10k can easily be broken. 2k should be around 142.

Excellent effort Minimoof. The 10k is a hard distance to judge . The 6k is looking like it needs to be next

9m?!?!?! The WR is yours whenever you want it. Your progress is outstanding Marius.

I believe the current record is 1290m. I think I already have that distance, but need to go a few extra meters so maybe I will try again in a month or so.

New 5k pb - 23:13.7, 2:19.3, r24. (19.2s better than previous best done for the IRL on 21/12/17.)

A bonus really as was just trying ErgData for the first time: all seemed to connect and sync ok including hr data.
