Rowlympics is over but the Concept 2 Dog Days of Summer Challenge is ongoing for about 1 more week.
To make today’s rowing more interesting, intervals were added to a 30 minute session. The first 5 minutes of the session were slow-rowed as a warmup and then there were 3 intervals of 1,000 meters each, with 3 minutes rest separating each 1,000 meters from the next 1,000. The last remaining minutes of the session were used as a warm down.
Two other rowers in Denmark joined in. One of them, Annette, was using a ski erg and she did the intervals while the other one, Jesper, was using a regular Concept 2 rowing erg. Jesper wanted to work hard without taking any warm up, rest intervals or warm down so he rowed the entire 30 minutes at the impressive pace of about 1:53/500m.
Happy trails to you.
