Re: Blue Moon

Did a 6k at 2.04.6 pace as a warm up for a 30 minutes row. This was probably too fast as a warm up for me right now and I struggled to complete the 30 minutes at 2:04 pace, when I was hoping to get close to 2:00. Still, at least I managed to complete the blue moon challenge. :mrgreen:

There once was a man nicknamed Stan
To succeed, he had quite a plan
Lots of long distance rows
While he counted his toes

Re: New ranking board?

Hi J-R It's great to see that you're still posting. I hope you're enjoying the break from rowing and that everything is going well for you. I'm not sure there's a lot you can do to improve on the Nonathlon approach. This pretty much converts eveything back to a level playing field, although I might ...

Re: 40 before 40: 32/40 - REST DAY!

Hi Thomas

I'm glad you're taking the day off. It's been a tremendous effort, but you have to be wary of burnout. It might even be a good idea to take two days off and return refreshed.

ELM Free Spirits Fun - Blind 200m

I had a couple of goes at this yesterday, but I'm not sure I did it correctly. I set the erg to 'just row' and then I rowed with my eyes closed. I stopped when I thought I was close to 200m and the flywheel kept spinning until it reached 208m. I had a second attempt and this time it stopped at exact...
