I was all set to race yesterday until two minutes before and the system booted me out for connectivity issues. Ended up doing a standalone time trial of 1.13:0 cruelly rounded up from 1:12.9! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNwKm_d0m4Y Brutal ![]() Proper fly and die there, and nice to see someone pulling so fast but with a relatively low rate. Well done ![]() | ||

Did you see the 13year old Zimbabwean girl did 1.31.9? She is 6'4'' so many sports she could excel at. Wow that is a ridiculous time! It'll be interesting to see which direction she gets pulled in as she gets older too. I expect the American university scholarship offers are coming in already! macroth said:Qualifying was a bit of a hassle, wasn't worth it for me. Seems like many people didn't bother, compared to other years. Bad luck with the computer glitch ![]() Just watched the video. Very solid row indeed, not much of a fade at the end. Obviously it's hard to say as I didn't have to react to the race start. I think it should have been good enough for bronze in the open behind Anton the Ukranian who pulled 1:12.8 and Big Phil who pulled 1:11.6.

Well done ![]() I definitely rely more on the strength and stroke length than I do the rate, but this was an attempt at a very controlled first 250m rather than go out hitting max watts from the start. If I did open up with 1:03 pulls I'd more than lose the benefits after about 300m, but it's a strategy that seems to work for Phil! | ||
