Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25565 posts Administrator	Post Edited: 28.04.2024 @ 20:29 PM by Boar Well , I ran the 2024 manchester marathon - covered the 26.2 miles in 3 hours 51 minutes - a lifetime PB (2023 time was 4:05 ... 2013 time was 3:56) I am done with endurance running, I am 70kg .... 5kg lighter than i was in 2022. I have now set myself a goal British Indoor Rowing Championships December 2024 Not rowed more than a few 1000 meters in the last 18 months ..... I sold my (4th) rower ... I have some sort of mental thing with buying n selling rowers. Gym Rower 2000m - 7:55.3 getting to sub 7 in 7 months is quite a challenge for a weak old man with no rower. https://i.ibb.co/t4ZsvNk/april-first-2km.jpg

I first fell in love with concept 2 rowing training for the Exertrain winter warrior competition in which there was a 2km row (ofcourse I was just happy to be there , but I did win) as the concept 2 rowers are at the gym, I will be weight training aswell as a little running (I have the Hackney Half marathon in a few weeks)

Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25565 posts Administrator	Thanks for the support chaps. Give it a go Ned you lazy grandad , got a 7:30 in you for sure. I recall that you are indeed.....colossal , I dont expect to be at my best but when i last did some rowing, it was lockdown , so this is a nice chance to get back to proper competing , so let me know if you decide to go. Absolute superstar JT , I suspect that would be more of a rower theft due to my living 100+ miles away I would obviously splash out on the drinks. Gym Rower 6 x 500m (1 min rest) also did some weights https://i.ibb.co/sWmwG7k/6-x-500-ap-30th-2024.jpg
