Re: July ctc - 4k pyramid / 1'r per 250m rowed
Have been working on getting strength back recently and neglecting endurance, so was worried it would be worse. Satisfied.
Good luck everyone.

Drag 134. No penalties, so I don't think I'll be doing this again.

Didn't count strokes directly. Just kept an eye on the s/m of the display. I.e., seeing 23,23,21 thinking plus1,plus2,plus1 and aiming for 0 or slightly positive.

Re: The February CTC
From one point of view, good result. A half second faster than January's CTC 12 days prior. Thanks for the tips. Intervals look widely separated, but actually distributing the power evenly would net less than another tenth. Set drag to 132 instead of January's 137 because rest interval is so short a...

Felton, you're inspiring me to lower my rate further on steady state and see what happens. Today,

Can really understand those aborted attempts in the lead up to the record, after I had troubles with cramping and occasional numbness near the end of a mere HM.

Hard to tell if this was improvement or not with this odd thing. Based on 1k a month ago, thought I would go at 1:52 to start and accelerate on the down slope.

Re: The January CTC will be our choice
4x4' /r4' works very well for me in January time within season. Could see myself doing that multiple times. My other leaning would be a nonathlon ranking distance, since it's hard to squeeze in so many TT all late in the season while also doing CTC, even better if it's 5k or longer row. Hope somethi...

Re: October CTC: 10k unrestricted
Good participation numbers, especially considering the max CTC length. No one can just have an easy time of it.
I see Barbara just did another run. Clearly going faster than what is good for her health. Do we need an intervention?

When I got my C2-D5 in Dec, I looked at that 8x750m CTC and decided it was just too long for me. Since this 10k seems fantastic to you, J-Dog, I suggest you don't make a serious effort at it until the second half of October. Since you did a serious 10' recently, you have a rough idea of your 2k Watt...
