Wooohooo. New PB - by a grand 6m. 8334 for 30 minutes. Was cruising for 23 minutes, then hit a really big wall, and was going to stop, but carried on pulling, and with two minutes to go, stepped the rat back up, and slid in 6 metres ahead of past best.<br />
<br />
Fuelled by KFCÂ chicken wrap thing.<br />
<br />
Think I need to get some longer rows in - longer than the 30 minutes,so the wall moves back a few minutes....<br />
<br />
500m rate 1:48 flat. -

Good work! That's exactly 1000m better than my 30min distance.. how depressing<br />
<br />
What's your 5k and 10k records? -
5k in 17:36<br />
10k in 36:45.6<br />
6k in  21.07.3<br />
<br />
So you can join the TSF rowing team Duluth.<br />
<br />
Although, what / when / why we are going to row, buggered if I know. You're logging your times at concept2.com??<br />
<br />
To get that 30 minutes time down, I think I cam going to have to start doing some hard longer rows - and looking at the above, perhaps if I start doing some serious 10k cracks, I might have some energy left at th end of the 8k nudges. Or go 40 minutes and see what comes of those... Decisions, decisions. -
I haven't been logging my times on there yet.. but I will start doing that soon.<br />
<br />
I've been struggling to find the time to row recently as I'm commuting 2 hours to get to work. I still managed to do 40k last week though.<br />
When this contract ends in a couple of weeks I'll be able to make some decent progress. <br />
<br />
My modest times are:<br />
<br />
5km 19:46<br />
30min 7330<br />
10km 41:44 -
[b]Tuesday[/b]<br />
morning row 2636 10 minutes. Fark it is COLD.<br />
lunch row 4000Â 15:20<br />
evening row 2660 10 minutes<br />
about as much get up and go as a week old corpse today - too cold for anything!!<br />
<br />
[b]Wednesday[/b]:<br />
morning:Â 6000Â 23:15.5Â Â -Â get up and go returned a little, only a fresh corpse today... -
Thursday<br />
5000m 19:17.1 and 40 minutes 10,710m<br />
<br />
Friday<br />
10,000 - 36:40.0 which was a new PB, by accident, didn't know, just a good hard row that went right. 40 seconds over 10 thousand metres doesn't sound like much to get down to 36 minutes, but it is!! -

Saw James Cracknell wandering around at the tri Mrs Luigi was competing in last week. He's a tall fucker - must be good having those big long levers working the oars.
