5K Season Best In A Half Hour

The above photo is from a website called Shape where they have an article on a 30 minute rowing workout. Theirs doesn’t burn as many calories (285) as my easy 30 minutes burned today (411 calories not counting warmup/down).

Today’s indoor rowing session was a maybe session.  I thought “maybe I’ll go for a pace faster than 2:03/500m in a half hour. Maybe.”  If I did it, it would have been a season best 30 minutes and would have moved me up several places in the world rankings.

I guess it was a double maybe session and it got the double whammy, which according to Websters is “a combination of two usually adverse forces, circumstances, or effects”. But I don’t know what those two forces etc were and I don’t care enough to ponder them.  It was a non-obligatory-to-do-anything-particular rowing session.

After 5K at a pace that about matched my current season best 5K, I decided to slack off and work hard for the entire 30 minutes on another day.

It was a good workout and I should sleep well again tonight, like I slept well last night after yesterday’s 37K.
