I am not going to row for two hours, no thank you sir. I would rather be on my bicycle traveling about if I am going to do two hours of cardio. Khalipa is kicking ass.
So the Docs I work for got off early today, so today was the day to do this. I made it to 7391M and my fingers felt like the skin was going to rip off. I stopped and got some gloves I use to go shooting with. They are very thin and have full rubber on the palm side. If any of you attempt this wear gloves. Anyways, when I got back to the rower it almost timed out. I had to reprogram the rest of distance, 13706M.
My first 2k was 8:21.7 Total Time 1:43.06
I beat my estimated time. My last 1k was a 2:10 500M pace. I will not call out anyone for not doing this, because this sucked, but I am glad I did it. Felt very rewarding.
Dave that is awesome. Nice Work!!! I pussed out at around 5k. My ass was just killing me from those front squats and wall balls. I have rowed a 10k before and every thousand meters after 5 I had to get off and run around the garage to get rid of the numbness in my ass. This wod was just not meant for me.
Most likely will not get to this until Friday. Going by my 5K time, assuming I can hold that pace, this will take me 1:47 to do.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the few times I'm not jealous for not having a rower. Have fun with this one fellas.

damn Dave that's impressive. Most I have ever rowed was a 10K a long time ago. That took me 39:54. I dread even thinking about a 1/2 marathon row.
ReplyDeleteNice work Dave! That had to be brutal. Hat's off to you
ReplyDeleteThanks Craig and Chris. Craig, I would think you and Justin would be able to do this in 1:30 or less. Both you guys row way faster than I do.
ReplyDeleteI am about ready to guarantee a 90 minute or less performance, but that idea just scares me and makes my buttocks quiver.
