Congratulations Philip. I’m waiting to see if you use the Solstice as an opportunity to go for the HM record.

Re: New age group:new targets
4 WRs in 15 days, that may be a WR in its self! Congratulations and looking forward to seeing many more!

Re: New age group:new targets
Awesome Philip. I'm sure there's many more you can target - but don't over-stretch yourself sir.

Re: New age group:new targets
It’s ironic you have said that, David, because after some facial surgery today I have been advised to avoid vigorous exercise for two weeks. So, like the man said, “I’ll be back ”

Re: New age group:new targets
All went well. No worries. Stitches come out next Thursday. No chance of looking any younger. Just feel as though I’ve been kicked in the head

Thanks, Tina. Having exchanged the Victorian winter for Queensland’s welcome warmth for a few weeks, I shall soon be back on the erg with renewed vigour

Re: New age group:new targets
Very well done Philip, we need to create a new section in the hall of fame for you !
I'm pretty sure I could not match that figure and I'm only 73 and at 15 stone a heavyweight

Great to have you back and claiming yet more records Philip.

Re: New age group:new targets
I normally row before breakfast but this time it was late afternoon. It wasn’t a planned attack; I felt good and it was just one of those days
Negative splits and 15 seconds better than the previous record. WR #8 ; very happy.
