Today’s rowing started out to be a timed 30 minute session with a target pace of 2:04 or better, for the sake of ranking it among Concept 2 World Rankings for this season.
But the first attempt was interrupted after about 5 minutes.
The second attempt was also interrupted, almost immediately.
For the third start of a 3o minute session, I decided to watch a video instead and take it easy instead of trying for a fast 30 minutes. So I watched a youtube documentary of the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge, which also refers to itself as “The world’s toughest row.” Many competitors had to drop out and many of them capsized at least once and had other problems during the race which lasted for about 6 weeks.
It’s just as well that I didn’t make the third start a hard row for the purpose of ranking … because RowPro kinda crashed. Semi-crashed. The program itself kept running, but for some reason it was unable to save the data. So all I could do was make a manual log entry to Concept 2. Such an entry, if entered among the world rankings, is classified as not verified.
Happy trails.
