Won’t be 100% effort from my side this month either, but will put a score in as all count

Thanks Spider, was pleasantly surprised myself, early on was concentrating on maintaining 2 full breaths a stroke and maintained 30SPM, then it becomes a bit of a blur... I suspect at least some was anaerobic as felt in many of the rests that I would never stop panting, ignore the last as a stroke requires the legs to move and they weren't at the end!

Well done all. Interesting one this… if you get the pace right then it doesn’t really hurt until the last couple. If maybe I went too easy early on? :-k

Either way, I’m away much of this week so figured I’d best get my go in now…

I was looking for 1:50 pace but that was never going to happen given the lack of power work I have been doing. Pleased I saw sense and kept it steady throughout and finished. That’s me for this month I think.

This is one of the CTCs where I just put in a controlled effort to enter a score for the team, no full throttle. Happy with the numbers though.Image

Ladies, please help us to float
An undermanned desolate boat
You don’t have to be quick
Your own pace you can pick
And you’ll add to the score line (please note) :fsgrin:

Thank you all for the contributions for the team!
Great to see Brit back with FS and thank you Jill, great to be in the same boat with you!

Is there maybe another lady out there that can help float the last boat? Would be great to leave no member on shore.
