I think I might be able to get that 16k. I had a sweaty hand handle drop at 51min, and held back on that first 30min. Maaaayyyybee 16k in a few months....

Nice 60 min well done. HR indicates more to come too.

Well done, and I think 16k is within your reach. I always liquid chalk for my hands

20 Million lifetime meters and a season 2K PB yesterday to complete it at 7:24.5 at exactly 22spm. Could have gone harder but had another 5K row straight after that. Target from the start was 1:52.0 pace at 21spm.

Congratulations on the PB!
A very nice time as well.
Also congratulations on making it half way around the world! That's a lot of meters.

Great job Carl.

I'm about 19 million meters short of Carl's adventure, but I'm 10k closer today than I was yesterday. Managed to get to the finish line 20.2 seconds faster than previous best.

Progress continuing nicely

[Spinal]

Nice work Spinal. Looks like sub-7 is a near-certainty (not that it'll be easy or pain-free of course).

The pauls law calculator I'm using clears you under 7 minutes for 2K by a full 2 seconds based on that. Nice going.

Don't see many people doing the mile these days. Used to be two or three mile races per season back in the early 2000s.
It's usually about 1 sec faster than 2k pace so sub 7 2k is there for the taking.

Great row - as others have said, sub 7:00 2K is there.

Imo, you should give it a go next week, and carry on with PP. You're in a good patch of form, so strike whilst the iron is hot.

Guys thanks for the encouragement, it gave me the confidence to go ahead and do the 2k TT. I've had the 2k test on a pedestal; over thinking and worrying about missing my target.
