Concept 2 Erg 34:11 8.0 km (14.0 kph)
ahr:148 max:183 shoes: NB 1080 Blue
Hope to get out for a run tomorrow. Went over on my ankle a week ago hence no running.
10 chin ups and 20 push ups (380/760 YTD), then onto the erg for another late session.
Usually the first 2k is a little quicker than the middle 4k so I went off at the overall average best pace. It meant the pace boat pulled half a length ahead but I got that back over the middle 4k. My HR climbed faster though and I had to back off more in the last 2k. I was off the screen with 400 to go, out of it. I attacked anyway. Really attacked. Holding 1:40/500m pace at 20spm was all out. My HR lept from 153 to 183 in 20 strokes. It reminded me of my first national championship win in a 4+ at Uni. We were 3ft behind with 10 strokes to go and won it by inches.
I was catching the pace boat fast but with 10 strokes to go it was still too far. MAX effort. Beat it by 1 second, on the last stroke. It was only a short base session with a kick finish but boy was it enjoyable!
I'll have to do some longer sessions to build the base. I'm not even thinking about Intervals or threshold stuff until I'm fit enough to attempt it.
