Happy Mothers Day 2017

for-mothers-day

The above photo was found on a website/blog called Fit and Fabulous After Forty and was chosen for today because today is Mother’s Day! and its an appropriate-for-the-day picture of a mother and a child rowing side by side on Concept 2 rowing machines.

The photo came up when I searched images for the terms mother rowing and is located in an article where the author writes about her experience of participating in a marathon row. It can be found at THIS LINK.

Today’s rowing session for me was 30 minutes online in a group of 7 people including myself.

One of the other rowers asked if anyone planned to row exactly 7,000 meters in 30 minutes and I volunteered to do that pace, which was 2:08.5/500m.

I maintained an average pace of 2:08.5 for the first 28 minutes, but he rowed a bit faster.  So when the time counted down to 2 minutes remaining, I sprinted a bit.
