Some Intervals

ah-music-intervals
Today’s rowing intervals were nothing fancy and not particularly musical like the above pictured music intervals. But the rowing intervals left a nice afterglow, similar in some respects to what a person might feel after listening to a beautiful symphony.

Today’s session was a set of five intervals of 1500 meters each with a five minute active rest after each.  5×1500 R5:00.  Nothing musical about them but there was music playing while doing them.

The target pace for all but the very last interval was 1:58.4/500.

The very last interval was done with a deliberately restrained target of being a just slightly faster pace.

The overall average pace of all five was 1:58.2 and that will be the target pace for the first four intervals of this set of five when it is done again in three weeks.

There was a warmup of about 5 minutes before the set of intervals.
