Re: Indoor Rowers League 2018 / 2019

Did 4 2K intervals today and finished the last one in 7:19.4. Thought I might as well enter this as an early score. Since 2K is absolutely not my favourite distance and perhaps little opportunity to row a lot this month there's also a slight possibility it's my only entry. But I hope to get closer t...

Re: Anyone had any PBs recently?

Great Lily, I hope the results help you to keep on going after the 4th of May, but well, I can imagine you want some rest after that...

Re: February 19 CTC - 2801m

An early entry from me as well. Weekend just begun, didn't want to start too fast. Overall the pace is one second slower then the September challenge.
Let's see what happens...

Very honourable indeed. I consider this thread closed then.

It coincides with hte IRL of february, so participators in both can kill two birds with one stone.

Re: January 19 CTC - 20/R20

Today I rowed at a time more suitable for me. Managed 5173 meters with which I'm very satisfied. I think this will be the last one for this month.
Good luck everyone, still a couple of days left...

Re: January 19 CTC - 20/R20

Excellent Guy ^O^ ^O^ Personally I really wanted to finish this challenge again after a couple of failed attempts due to starting too fast. A bit more careful today and ended up just behind the Smith's. 2 meters behind Greg, 8 behind Steve. Perhaps I'll give it another shot, being in the last H seat...

Re: Nonathlon 2019

It's been a while so here's an update. 15 points gained today with my 500 mtr. Also the last meta-nonathlon score that wasn't green, but is now. I'm afraid I'm making it hard on myself for next season in that meta thing... A little over three months to go. Good luck everyone... 1 GuidonTheBee 8859 M...

Re: Indoor Rowers League 2018 / 2019

Thanks Tako, my back is much better already. I think it was the consequence of an exercise I started some time ago, part of a set. Deadlift with straigjt legs. Indeed not very sensible to try to do. Due to a testweek of my kids (one of them is using the study to study, of all things, and that’s wher...

Re: Indoor Rowers League 2018 / 2019

After a failed attempt on the CTC (didn't think I could start too fast there, but after a while I thought I couldn't keep that pace) forced myself to have a shot at this one. turned out to be a good warming up I think. Made it to 351 meters, which is exactly the same as last year. Don't think there'...

Re: Indoor Rowers League 2018 / 2019

Gave it a try and accomplished exactly the same score as Steve. Was a bit reluctant because of my back, don't know whether I'll give it another try. I think a small improvement should be possible but I have to get rid of that pain first I think. Absolutely necessary to keep my technique ok, that's p...

Re: January 19 CTC - 20/R20

Today a better result. Though not yet painfree I was abler to row with my normal DF. Even felt some sort of rhythm now and then so I could focus on the power a bit more.
More then 5K now, 5077.

Re: January 19 CTC - 20/R20

As expected absolutely not my cup of tea. Lacking the Ergdata app decided to take a stroke every three seconds. Excuses: first attempt, suffering from pain in my lower back so I rowed with a lower DF then normal, my son came in asking where something was of which I didn't have a clue... Managed to s...

Re: January 19 CTC - 20/R20

Yes, I saw that Ergdata can do the trick. But I would need a connecting cable and I’m not going to buy one just for this challenge.

Except for counting myself I’ve got no idea how to count Tth those strokes. Not my cup of tea I’m afraid.
