On summer leave for 3 weeks and have a programme lined up including rowing rowing and rowing. End of the programme i plan on doing some sort of marker test, not sure on 4 mins or full on 2k yet, will have to see. Not rowed in best part of 5 months (since CRASH B’s) although chucked in the last few challenge series in quick succession March – May but with no continuation training so just hopped on and blasted them out still holding decent fitness from Boston. So in affect i have not rowed properly for 5 months. So with that in mind i have absolutley no idea where i am at.
Fitness wise i am still up there because of work, but running and circuit training aint rowing! Did a MSFT (bleep test) today and was reasonably pleased with result, especially being a non runner at around 98kg!
So 3 weeks back on the erg and then back to work for 2 and a bit months. Gutted to be missing the Royal Navy Indoor Champs in Oct and will have to stick in some very average times for the first few Challenge Series results seeing as i will have to just hop on at the weekend and try and grind away some points.
The real come back, training starts Nov 7th. Wont have long before EIRC, WIRC and then BIRC so who knows what will happen. Either way i cant bloody wait to hit a structured programme again, this time with no interuptions.
