Finally had another go at the 15min challenge. 3978m - a new PB - it was horrible! I set off too fast. 4km was there for the taking, but I wimped out. Still thats 30km rowed since Monday - back to running tomorrow - hopefully. |

That's a good split time FF - what is your 2km erg time? Do you row on the water at all? |

TecT - it's been a while since I went flat out for 2km - I believe I managed 7:1x (IIRC) And despite having had the chance to row several years ago, the river never managed to entice me. With hindsight I really should have taken the opportunity. Never mind. |

Dunno, but I remembered to row last week and forgot to post that I'd done it.

Has anyone set a new PB - should I refresh the article this thread is linked to?

Not sure about PB's - I just thought the thread was worth resurrecting! Good 2km time there - shame you never made it onto the water, though I only started rowing 18 months ago in my forties, so it's never too late.... hoping to race the Heads this Autumn as a novice vet in East Anglia in my shiny single - first time racing for me... |

New PB, 3425m. The last 1:30 was agony.

I have a question for the other rowers here; how do you stop chafing round your arse? Do I need to be even more intimate with the Vaseline or Body Glide? I don't remember having this problem when I rowed before but I was wearing cycling shorts then.

Congrat RichHL Sorry no advice on the chafing, not something that I've suffered from rowing - I usual wear cycling shorts. |
