New attempt today. Standard goal, faster then the same rep of last time. Managed that except for the last one, went a bit too enthusiastic back and hurt my lower back, had to slow down a bit. Also the only rep in this pyramid which was slower then the first half.
My back still hurts quite a bit so this might possibly be the last one of the month. Wonder how it feels tomorrow.

@Wolfie: a new goal for you

Pretty sure hyou can make it.

Impressive time Fred. WTG.
Don't think I'll get anywhere near you this month.

Great improvement Fred

I hope the back heals up quickly

I finally plucked up the courage to try this one today though even before starting I was wondering when would be a reasonable point to bale out? As it was, I think I paced it just right because the pain didn't really kick in until halfway through the second 400m. Surprisingly pleased with the result... not convinced I'll be trying this one again

Result: 2500m, 8:07.6, 1:37.5, 36

Very well done Fred, you are a big powerful man so those scores are there if your back stays strong.
0.4s overall

very tempting, but I'll have to see if I can fit it in ...

Well done Mat

I should be able to nudge my friend James to have a go and push me out of boat 1.

Very nice job Kevin, and thank you. Saves me having another go tomorrow to try and pinch Fred's seat

I'd like to say "nice to be of service" but you'd know it wasn't nice

Very good indeed, Kevin, and definetely not a nice thing to do...
And Wolfie, does that mean I stay ahead of you this month? Surprising start of the year for me

Indeed it does Fred (might have been different if it meant a different boat #

)
