An hour of skipping and 20K of work on technique. In the recovery, I am trying to get faster with my back and hands so that I can be slower and more controlled coming down the slide into the catch. By the way, I was pleased to see that, today at least, I could get to race pace (1:36) at 28 spm--strapless. That's over 14 SPI. When I started rowing strapless, 10 SPI was difficult. Progress. ranger

Saturday 25th 10:00am 40min / 110df / 20spm / strapless 10404 / 1:55.3 / 228.1w / 11.40spi Bit stiff after yesterday but genrally ok. Now that I am getting a feel for the lower drag I will work at getting my pace up for 40 minutes then increase the time gradually to an hour. Would be looking to row these at 12.5spi comfortably before progressing. - George

Congratulations, Dwayne. Do you think you'll do that time at the actual USIRT trials, end of October? Same strategy or go for more even pacing in the race-like situation?
