I find it one of the tougher sessions at the moment, it's the 22SM that does it for me, I'd rather do todays session than 4x14 UT1

Why stick to 22 SR for UT1? The Rathburn guide recommends 20-24 doesn't it?

755.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq		Well the way I see it the low SR is to build power so 22's better than 24? I can manage ok at 22 SM, it just makes it tough Happy

You are right there jt, although by the last one I would probably be going 1:50 pace!

Thought a nice steady Sunday row was in order Grin Wanted to duck under 6:20 2k pace so job done. This was a full max effort, hopefully with a taper I could hold it for another 500m, I was finished by the end though, last few strokes were over 1:35.

What a smasher, 6.20 boom on the way.

Will you be doing a 2k before the end of the plan? Week 19 a gentle warm up 6.23 or so????

Does it give you confidence for a sub 6:20 2k with a proper taper?

755.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq		Jt, I'm trying to do a max effort on something every three weeks at the moment, so a 2k may be attempted on week 19 Grin I just can't fully commit to that yet, it needs to be nearer the time before I start thinking about it!

Cheers Macroth!

Sparrow, I'm sure if I hit a 2k on the right day I could get 6:20 now BUT it's just getting the timing right. I don't really know how to taper for the C2 properly so I'm hoping the program will get me there. I wouldn't have got 6:20 yesterday I know that, I would have ducked under my pb of 2:27 though.

A more enjoyable UT1 today, HR got a little high half way through the last set so I dropped the pace, felt decent overall though.

You may not have got the 6.20 yesterday but I think you might of just managed a 1.43 last 500 for a pb.

As much as the 1500 is a useful tool for a predictor part of me would think I may of well as done the full 2k.

Lovely 15's as per!

Busy today so this was an early (for me) 9am row, did not feel up for it at all when I started but soon got into it. Not the best AT session, but better than I thought it would go when I started, HR increased a lot second half of the last set.

Evening - squats x10, x10, x10

You would think it would be easier in the morning, before the day has worn you out.

Still a nice session.

755.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq		I've never trained well in the morning, and by morning I mean within an hour or so of me waking up. Much prefer it mid day or evening time, I'm the same with work, I'll often work late into the night and have to drag myself out of bed in the morning.
