The most fun part of today’s erg time was a 500 meter piece. It was number 3 of 4 toward today’s goal of 15,000 meters. Target for the 500m was was 2:10 for first 400m and then faster for the last 100 to the finish. It was “ranked” in the concept2.com online rankings because it was a new “season best” for that distance.

The only session today with a screen recording is that short piece. Graphs and data for the others can be viewed at the link further below.

A 500m was the shortest of four erg workouts today and it is the one for which there is a screen recording. The 500m target was to have an average pace of about 2:13 by the time remaining distance counted down to 100 meters and then to row a bit stronger for the last 100 meters.

The total distance goal for today was 15K which was done in four pieces.

There were two rowing pieces again today, 4,500 m and 500 m. The 4500 meter piece was warmup.

Target for the 500 meters was average pace of about 2:16.7, which would move me up slightly in the Concept2.com online rankings. I overshot the goal and went a bit too fast at the end.

There were two rowing pieces today, 4,500 m and 500 m. The 4500 meter piece was warmup for the shorter 500 meters.

Target for the 500 meters was average pace of about 2:18, which would move me up slightly in the Concept2.com online rankings, from 53rd to 50th place. Just for the fun of it.

Just like the title says, it was a test. But if you are looking for a 100 meter race, it will work for that… though you might want to give me a little head start to make it more challenging for yourself.

The main aerobic workout for today was 5K rowing, for which no screen recording was made.

Today’s workout was a 5K rowing session. It was done online but because it was scheduled immediately, nobody else noticed it in time to join. The pace was constant and as steady as possible but heart rate was inconstant and unsteady.

The test was to see how RowPro and a SkiErg would work together. I got the idea to try it after being in an online session yesterday with two guys who were both using SkiErgs with RowPro.

Though it was a deliberately easy effort on the SkiErg I was forced to reduce pace to extremely easy after about 5 minutes because heart rate climbed higher than warranted by the easy effort.

This 30 minute session was done slowly by me but faster by the other two guys. I was the only one actually rowing because the other two were using SkiErgs connected to RowPro.

If you wonder what the word “testje” means, you will have to look elsewhere because I don’t know. This morning when I looked online to see if anyone else was showing and available to row with, this 1K session was set up as a QR (Quick Row = unscheduled, spontaneous, starting immediately).

I joined it, but the guy who had set it up was absent. He or someone with the same name appeared to be rowing in a different session, which was sort of impossible… normally when someone sets up a QR, that person either rows it or it disappears. But it was there and I wanted to row right away, so I used it as a warmup.

Today’s rowing was a 5K. This was done online for the usual reason: hope of having the virtual company of other people. But if you watch the screen recording, you will see from the view of the online chatroom, there was NOBODY else logged in. More people needed, in this ultra tiny world of online rowing.
