Looking forward to the interval

there was this old lady who used to stand at the front and sell ice creams from a tray suspended around her neck

now that leads me onto a new strongman pairs event......

The interval was excellent a screwball was 49 pence.

so today i did 4 x 500 at sub 7 pace , next week i will do 6 reps and start on the 1000m at sub 7 pace , todays went very well

oh, I created team BOAR in the concept 2 universe .... you can join ...but dont have to actually do anything , its win/win

http://log.concept2.com/team/13858


  • 2000m row warm up

  • 500m x 4 - at sub 7 pace (125 drag)

  • 2000m row cool down


during the last 50 meters on the 2nd rep a curtain got sucked into the fan and the drag factor dropped to 30 , so i had to f**k about and get the last few meters done , hence the 1;46 ...

our Jack passed his first year at uni and is now in Austria visiting his bird ...dan and Emma are fighting like cat n dog and its home made pizza for tea.

Good work Jon. Looks like you finished strong yet again.

Homemade pizza sounds hard work.

I was going for negative splits JM , so the 2nd one was going to be around 1:44.2

making the dough can be a pain of the children are insisting on helping , but after that its plain sailing

I always know if the boy has helped make the dough, house looks like a flour bomb has gone off.

Sam has been making a sour dough loaf everyday it is super delicious today, I had it toasted with cheese and homemade beetroot chutney

When I asked if the cheese was homemade she apologised and agreed to try harder in the futureCool

I think I may invest in one Will !

or attempt to marry Jt's lovely wife , however the lack of cheese making is putting me off.

all the way thru my various training i have enjoyed making vids ....

FFWd to 3:45 for the very very mildly interesting curtain incident.
