Hi Jon
In trying to generate a new signature image, I am getting the above error code. Can you help, or is the problem at my end?
I've tried both Firefox and Chrome with the same result.
Thanks in advance,

Re: Anyone had any SEASON's bests recently?

I didn’t expect much reward for a 0.2 second improvement on my 2k time for this season and I wasn’t disappointed : just 1 point :fsbgrin: The time was 8:45.8.

When you have your next attempt :twisted: at this session try the first 5 at your previous ave then slowly neg.split the remaining. Little steps. I had planned to follow this suggestion, Colin, but all thoughts of negative splitting and little steps were jettisoned after a vigorous warm up! I was h...

Decided to neg split from a comfortable start to just below 2:00 to finish
I thought that was a good idea, Colin, so I tried the same approach.
The result was 8:13.2 at 26 spm which was better than I had expected.
Will probably have another attempt.

Not enjoyable when your sole focus is on the stroke rate.
