December ctc - 2963m / 5‘r / 2185m

Post by Grobi »

Hi everybody,

team Age against the machine have announced the December ctc:

„Santa's Scilly Saturday
2,963m (standing start)
5mins rest
2,185m (can be rolling)
Record your time for 5,148m

The first distance is the long race from St. Agnes to St. Mary's. The second distance is from Nut Rock to St. Mary's. Both these are held on the Saturday at the World Pilot Gig Championships in early May on the Isles of Scilly.“

Any ideas on the pacing? 5k -3?
Athletes row, others just play games

Not a great attempt, went too hard early and paid the price with a rolling start 2nd half slower than the first half.

2963m: 11:43.2 @ 1:58.6 (157 max hr)
2185m: 8:43.3 @ 1:59.7 (162 max hr)
