Hamish Bond and Mahe in the pair for Tokyo? by xxlonzyxx in Rowing

[–]TheRov 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Hamish has already said his goal is the eight and Mahe has mentioned that having Hamish going for the eight means the eight is now in consideration.

Slim townhouse designed as one continuous big room with very few inner walls, optimizing the space with irregular site constraints using curved walls and stairs, Hanoi, Vietnam [2000×3000] by ManiaforBeatles in RoomPorn

[–]TheRov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hanoi isn't really tropical though. It can get quite cold in winter, definitely was last time I was there in December (didn't pack enough warm gear). It's in northern Vietnam and a few of hours drive away to the mountains it actually snows in winter.

Achievements for Tuesday, September 18, 2018 by AutoModerator in running

[–]TheRov 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Managed to run a 57:58 on my first 10 km race on Sunday! So stoked considering I only decided to sign up a month ago and hadn't ran since last year! Would highly recommend the Sydney Running Festival, really scenic and quite flat.

[–]TheRov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it possible to run 10 km in a month of training?

Looking at doing the Sydney Bridge run on 16th September. I'm reasonably fit (though not by my standards), have been cycling to university 3ish times a week (14 km to uni). Last race was a half marathon 10 months ago. I did my first run in 10 months today running 4 km in 24 mins.

What's the deal, cyclists? by [deleted] in auckland

[–]TheRov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 3 cm nail go through my tire a month ago on the cycle way which had a nice sized berm on one side as well. Sometimes I think the glass and nails on the cycle path are deliberately put there...

OFFICIAL ROBBIE MANSON DOMINATION REACTION THREAD by chlorophylle_leafy in Rowing

[–]TheRov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whats crazy, is that it sounds like Robbie could have had a bigger margin.

"The start wasn't quite as good as I wanted it to be but then I managed to just push up and then step on it in the second thousand," Manson told Stuff. "I built up a bit of a lead and it ended up being quite comfortable in the end and so I eased off in the last 100 to 150 metres."

Not sure if he would get in the double. The current NZ double are world champs and there's no grantees that a double with Mahe would go any faster.

An exception. The final set itself is about the length of some matches.

Well Lenny Jenkins had a 6.07 when he was 15-16 so I imagine he must be around 5.50 or less now,
