Dave really sorry to read of your predicament, not a good way to start 2024 matey, hope things get sorted quick and your up and back to your normal self pronto.

Is mine also valid with only 45 seconds rest

Wishing everyone a good new year.
CTC preliminary session today just to get a feel for the 20 rate, not as easy as it used to be,if you’re not used to rating at 20 please go easy as this will stress your lower back so a good wu is a must.

Yippy thx Jill what a star, have a brilliant year everyone.

Well done for giving it another go Phillip and showing your true competitive spirit.

L4 s I remember those about a decade ago so looking for something short after 40 odd minutes on the treadmill 12 x1min 1min rest just going through the motions really but concentrated on form.

Two for the price of one do you get what I did there.And a merry Yule to you too Philip but good fun sort of

Mmm sub 2:16 thinking about it, can I do it, do I actually want to do it. Can I out perform these two challengers. I have to try just think of that wonderful feeling if I succeed. Merry Yule everyone.

A very special place for me The Isles of Scilly just love the place Tough session,With Philip again being my target, so tough I had to take a bit of an extended rest to recover. Sorry about the large pic using an iMac and can't find a way to reduce it. Where have all the ladies gone I was going to a...

Time for a bump up on this thread.
10k 48:23.6. 800 points Wahoo!!

Thx Dave, really sorry to hear your having problems on the erg, only advice I can offer is to take things easy but don’t stop even if it means just slow walking and don’t exercise with any pain and if no improvements probably best to throw some money at it. Hope it improves soon matey.

Well done on the PB Ian special things them PBs . So time was getting short for this CTC and a promise is a promise a HR capped session at 150 max till the last 500m then pushed on, just like to say a special well done to Phillip nice one matey

Right the CTC needs a bit more attention with only a short time to prepare for the 10k it will only be a just get it done job. Easy sessions to start me off.

Hi Paul same here, I actually got my good wife Chris to Erg the 200m that’s a first by the way then tried to enroll her into c2 and free spirits failed on both so finished up using my eldest daughters CTC account. This is a bit unacceptable but hey at least it’s a boat floated and it may even encour...

Second go at this targeting my Irish friend that’s all I’ve got so I won’t be going again. Welcome back Paul.

Well done excellent results Philip,no signs of any rust there matey.

Nice one Rob
I also hit a SB this morning for the 1000m like a idiot I did it cold no warmup thinking how hard can it be to go at fm pace from 12 years ago, answer really hard still like you scored a Celeste colour for the Nonathlon. Yippie

warmed up with 45 minutes cleaning the garage. Philips time frightened the life out of me, but after a first go to get the feel of it felt more confident and sort of went for it.

Excellent effort and well done for even attempting a hard 2k your a braver man than me.

Hi Carole that's a lot to take in, but as plummy says your future treatment is in expert hands and ongoing. I really wish you well keep strong girl.

So glad your having fun Claudius or Clavdivs, =D> a great tv series from the past which is being reshown in the UK presently. Really trying to up my erging and run training lately as I'm seeing marked improvement unlike my bike training.Today for me 6x3 min 2r target around 2:18 IMG_1089.jpeg Spider...

[quote=Pepe This was my second attempt. I may have a third go to see if I can worry Stumpy :fsbgrin: [/quote] Entirely up to you ofcourse Philip but my first effort left me with a very sore right shoulder so only light erg sessions until the soreness goes, then maybe just maybe take that as I probab...

Excellent Erging guys well done. Especially well done to Strider you still got it matey!!! My effort was purely on feel till the 500 then a negative split, legs were a bit shot from last nights Zwift race.

Cheers David happy with any improvements these days especially without half turning myself inside out

Was going to attempt the CTC on ergzone, but sadly the app hadn't been updated so decided a 5k for the nonathon was in order. Set up a rerow from the best of the last few years and off I went. Result achieved so happy with the improvement 23:02.4
