always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | What a great pace to hold for a minute! A minute is a long time when you're going flat-out. Maybe you could add some of your other times/distances and Boar could add them to the leaderboard? | ||

But am interested in the type of training you do. Whats your Discuss pb? (with a 2kg no Perris Wilkins here!) I agree with you regarding Terry and the 500m I guess we haven't seen him do it for a reason. My discus PB is 63.00m from back in 2011. I don't think anyone knows what Periss' actual 2kg personal best was! Unfortunately my best throwing days are probably behind me though as I had a lumbar disc replacement at L5/S1 back in 2013 and haven't given it the same complete focus since then. | ||

These are the ones I can remember for now: 100m - 13.3 (12.5 on slides) 500m - 1:13.2 1000m - 2:52.5 2000m - 6:13.3 30r20 - 8405 | ||

A quick biography would be really interesting. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7865 posts | It's a bit surreal how Macroth has had pretty much the top of the rankings to himself for a decade or so then all these beasts turn up in the same year. Thank covid for that? | ||

A quick biography would be really interesting. I’m 32 now and did do a little bit as a teenager and entered BIRC in the 2k back in ‘05. I didn’t pick the handle up between about 2007 and 2018 when I started sprint training again. I’m 118kg, 198cm with a 210cm arm span. I came 7th at the Commonwealth Games in 2010 in the discus, and a frustrating 4th at this years World Indoor rowing champs in the 500m back in February. I think that’s about it really - I’ve been a long time lurker on Sugden since about 2010! | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7865 posts | Thats a pretty decent "ape factor" Did you ever throw against Lawrence Okoye? I reckon he would have a decent 100m on the erg. Maybe we start a Fantasy rowing league Fantasise who you would like to see row what distance. | ||

Yes, I trained and lived with Lawrence for a month in America in March 2012. I twinged my back handing out 225kg on the bench press which I think he tripled! lol | ||

Noticed they all arrived after you sold me my rower. We should take joint credit for this boom in performance Jason. | ||

Jason starts the year with one rower, he buys 6 more through the year and sells 4. How many rowers does Jason have left? | ||

I've never heard that phrase before! I'm not just saying this, but I've never seen or heard anything to suggest he isn't a clean athlete. There are far weaker athletes who I'd have stronger suspicions of. | ||

There was a far taller thrower with American links who I had heard called the 7ft syringe, he and his wife had both served bans. | ||
