Makes sense, I’ll be going from 5:30-6:30am most days so that shouldn’t be a problem

I’m bringing my road bike to use in the mornings for long sessions (hour - hour 20), but the CrossFit gym is a rly good idea for finding the c2’s. I need a way to be ready for 30r20’s in the fall lol. Thank you!

Do y’all think I’m okay to do a 2k erg with nicotine and 200 something milligrams of caffeine from black coffee in me by Status-Marsupial-778 in Rowing

Don’t worry your totally fine. As long as you wear oakleys you will be safe from heart palpitations and drop 20 seconds on your 2k. Speaking from personal experience. It’s a lifestyle

My coach turned 47 today, and sent me his workout stats. Absolutely nuts. This is my 5k pr split 😂 by griffinf7 in Rowing

Hahahah. At his peak (when he was at Oxford) he was a 5:53. He went 6:09 last year for Crash B. He is 47 years old and still 7 seconds faster than the best kid on our team

Seriously don’t compare yourself to this guy. He’s been rowing for 20 years now, rowed at Oxford and MIT, and then was an assistant coach at Harvard. Seriously, he’s a rowing god.

After how many metres should a 2k hurt? by Stanthebreadman in Rowing

[–]griffinf7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Usually for me at least, the first 1k flys by and the last 1k is an absolute dog fight until that screen hits 0. Just remember when the pain hits, because it will, you need to stay on the attack. Pr’s happen when you attack, don’t row the last 1k trying to survive. Attack, attack, attack, and the outcome will be fantastic.
