Came up with a genius plan of rowing 4by 500m with 2min rest and a target of 1:23 1:24 1:25 1:26.
Best laid plans and all that :lol: after the second 500m I sat watching the clock count down and waiting for the lactic pain to subside in the legs - it didn't so I took another few minutes and then hit the third rep on target for the first 200m and in hell for the back 300m - then took that final split as the target for the final rep and happily I was under it - I felt the grip of death on the thighs 200m in and took note of the average split to see what sort of decline this was going to be - the average was 1:32.2 at 300m left and lactic death descending - pretty happy with that then

Indoor Rowing on the Concept2 target was sub6 on the 2k as a 40 year old - now 50 and just getting some ducks in a row lets see where we can go. Previous Overall World Record holder in the 100km 6H12m39.2s ave 1:51.7 and Irish National Record holder in 30's 40's and 50's groups. Age group European & Irish 2k Champion and British Open 2k Champion

30r18 75% HRR plus 2by500 1:30r
scheduled to do 50r18 70% HRR followed by 2by500m but being cautious with time at lunch I dropped it to 30min but increased the HRR to 75% (151bpm) again as earlier I turned the ergdata to watts to stop the number chasing
Then on to the 500m's and I can tell ya I was blowing some amount of carbon of at the end of these! Tried to tie in the new technique as much as possible which I find is a lot heavier on my thighs than the old one.
