Re: Millionaires club-Season
Hi Jill, Thanks for recognising the effort! Free spirits are a supportive group of people and all with the rowing bug! Years passed, my vizslas are hunting now on the other side. The profile photo has been taken more than 11 years ago. This year then I re-joined the rowing club I used to row a long ...

Re: March CTC
Hi Folks, I see this challenge has drown many of you to hard workouts! Last day of the month me too did a final attempt. Stayed on the usual drag factor (level 7 on the erg), but did long-long strokes. This did work out better. Reached 97% of max HR. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7136/7034194233_128...

Re: February CTC
Hi All! Yesterday I decided to hold the pace 1:42, based on time differences of Erik and Kirby between this and last month's CTC. Reached a new max HR :) http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7173/6852999319_7434ff9308.jpg In the last rep started counting 50 strokes when 700 meters were left, and the last 2...

Re: January CTC
Stunning time from Erik
Alan, this must felt painful. Last rep . Nice.
There was some rearrangement in boat 2, =D> for Morten. I am not sure I will remain there

Re: January CTC
Good job, Plummy! It is not easy to get this right. After the last not so perfect attempt (could not hold the planned pace 1:40, last three reps were 1:41.8, 1:40.8, 1:40.8, but still improved), did another session today, the 5th CTC attempt this month, and SUCCEEDED! http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7...

Dear Iain and all Free Spirits, You are very nice people, remembering me and welcoming back. I just read the birthday messages. Touching moments. Actually yesterday's piece was not set up correctly, only 6 minutes rests were programmed (50', 50', 60', 60', 70', 70'). Today did it again, correctly se...

Hi! I was following the developments, and full respect to Stan for his efforts, good luck to Andrew with his recovery! Jason, amazing speed, what is your secret? Since about two weeks I do some harder stuff for training, row at 1:41.2 pace (why? :roll:) until HR=182 and then 500, and lately 1000 add...

Hi Colin,
I am pretty sure that this is OK. It has been discussed on the forum earlier if I remember correctly.
Cheers,
Attila

Re: April CTC 6k
Hi All! Monday I rowed 30 min at 1:48 pace, Tuesday 40 min at 1:48 (was hard!), and gained some confidence by these efforts today to try 6k at 1:43 pace. I am pretty happy that I did not give up at 3k and completed the distance according to the plan! Good times all, and good improvement Jason! Petr,...

Thanks guys for the praising -- it's the reason for posting here, NOT? :wink: I am missing Andrew Richards, we were battling the last two months, will he beat me on this one?

Re: November CTC - Air Product's 5 minutes
Hi, Did the first try on this month's CTC, and relative to the March's 1 mile CTC I could get 1 second off from the average split! The last minute was at 1:33.1 splits, had some power left in the tank. http://optics.szfki.kfki.hu/~karpati/ctc/2008-nov-ctc.jpg Mike, sorry to bump you from FS II. Attila

Re: October CTC - Pyramid Row
My wife convinced me to do it although I had not too much motivation. Last few weeks I did my training sessions (2x20'@1:52 or faster) more frequently than last month, and it did pay off. The final HR has been reduced from 166, 170 to 158, 164 (1st and 2nd run). Now to the pyramid: 500m@1:36.9 2 min...

Re: The fall short of expectations workout thread
Not training does not help the scores it seems. Failed to improve my result 6:34.1 in the September CTC, could only get to 6:35.4 today. It is not totally a failed attempt since I did not handle down! From now on I start a more structured training, getting back to row in 20 minute pieces, around 1:5...
