Ha, yeah I'm trying to row a couple of times a week. I go out on my mountain bike at least once a week too (more when the days are lighter and dryer!).

I don't want to row for too long really (40 mins will be an absolute max!) as I'm trying to focus on getting my 2k time down.

I think 6 mins 40 seconds is a good time to aim for on a 2k row... (Probably far easier said than done though!)

6:40 is a savage time mate. Me and my mate trying to aim for 6:28 to beat some lad at work but I’d be lucky to hit 7 atm!

Know what you mean about the weather, I got an bike last summer and did a lot of riding but it’s been in the shed for 3 months now!

I’m under no illusion - 1:40 splits will be absolutely brutal! But I think it can be done. Boar has already proved it can!

You’d smash 7mins mate! First 1k in 3 mins, then chill!

You were/are on an entirely different level of fitness though. I am using you as an inspiration. You have made me believe it can be done!

Top 10 in the world isn’t too shabby!! What time did he get?

Some of the records at different age groups are humbling.

70+ year olds rowing under 7mins 2k is very impressive.
