this evening: 14 km at 1:49.3, 22 spm. will try to build up to my first 1/2 marathon over the next 2 weeks one last time, aiming to mantain average splits at 1:50.0 and 22 spm. low temperatures (just above 0 degrees) should favour long pieces.

Thanks for the link Dougie. I decided to order the socks because they will be more useful than a glass. Besides, I am aiming to do the marathon early next year, so I will get a glass for that one.

120' of swimming this morning.... according to rowing canada, 5 minutes of cross training = 1 km of erging. so this morning is the equivalent of 22km of erging.

But it didn't beat Led Zep, Earls Court London or Bob Marley, Leeds Uni. 3) Never tried drugs apart from lots of alcholol. Would be very willing to but being an old bugger, never get the chance. Now, this is a serious thead, beats all this cr*p about 10K @ 2K +6 etc.

today 30 min strapless rate 24 pace 148.8 8272 meters. Did it inside bit warm. pfffff in 1 k out 2 k. Found some old trainingslogs. Saw my former rowing on the erg. It looked very hoopfull. I almost couldn't believe what I saw. In those days I was mosly focused on weighttraining. I rowed a on average 3 times a week. no more than 20/25 max. very little longer than 10 min in a row. Did 4 times a week heavy weighttraining. I run a bit and bikes and stepped a few times a week. My first 2k and first times on the erg, was 6.39, 1 month later 1 rowed 6.31, 6 weeks there fter a 6.19 and 4 weeks later my pb 6.14.7. In the next week I rowed 30 min 8711 meters. My pb. In between a couple off 1 k between 2.56 and 2.59. this was in 97/98. I am older now the 40 is not that far away anymore and had lost off fysical problems with my back. Got a few operations. But maybe it's not imposible to see those times again next year. Althoug I have to be carefull. At the moment the rowing goes fine and this week it's the 1oth week I row again. Sofare I made it to 300k. My first row was this time again a 2 k. It was a 6.55. So I have to come from quit far. My goal for march 2006 was 6.30. Although I haven,t tried it yet I think I am not that far off anymore. nice.

First time i rowed after 2 weeks doiing nothing! The first week i was busy with other things/problems and last week i had a bad cold. I did 30 minutes very relaxed, 7674 m. And then 10 minutes cooldown. This is my last week training this year because after Christmas i have a week off so i can't train (in the gym at work)!
