LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[DavidA]

Ah, but, unlike me, I think it's a safe bet that you have a spreadsheet for those years before you started logging meters online.

Who? Me?
(Both all my paper logs, and the spreadsheet.)

I did a trial 4:01 row last night to figure out my pacing. Either tonight or tomorrow night I'll make my first attempt at a real 4:00 row. My knee was a bit sore - but nothing that screamed "hey, dummy, stop NOW". I'm not giving up on the spring series!

I am hanging in there too... Yesterday I tried a 4x4min/2 min rest interval set, just to get the feel of the 4 minutes row...
I managed some decent row, but it got more out of me than I thought... Today I will do a short easy row and will try a proper 4min TT tomorrow and maybe another one towards the end of the week... I never did a 4min TT before, so a PB is guaranteed .
I am also trying to reach 550k for the season, just to get on the honor board...

Heck yeah, congratulations in advance on your 4 minute PR!

[TallErgs]

PR'd as well on my very first 4:00 minute row. I'm going to just start rowing arbitrary distances/times, so every time I sit down I PR.

[BigBrett58]

I set the drag on 10 and got a serviceable run. Pace was 1:48 or so.

[kpaine]

I’ll be giving the 4 min a shot tomorrow. I’m no sprinter but we have to represent!! Had to go ahead and get the 2 mil thing out of the way before the season ended.

Nice job!

Buck 48 is respectable for sure. I’ve never rowed a 4 min but My goal is 1:45

1:39.1 is a great effort, Zach! I hope your recovery was better than mine... Still coughing a bit, two days on. Saw a doctor, just in case, and as testing restrictions in Australia were relaxed this week to the point where a sore throat is sufficient justification, he decided I should have one.

So now I'm in self-isolation until the results are back.

Well done Brett! And good luck Ken, I know you can do it!

Do you have a rough idea when you'll get the results back? I really hope it's just a bit of fatigue from putting out so many PRs in the last few weeks. We're rooting for you!

Yes, good luck with the test results and good health!!!

[Tombeur]

I hope the test results show no infection or other problem. Keeping you in my thoughts.

Ditto that. Fingers crossed for you Andrew.

[canglem]

Learned a valuable lesson last night on my 4 minute attempt...don't try a sprint effort at 10:45 at night!

Will give it 1-3 more shots as the week progresses.
