row 5k for time

22:02 (1:37 PR)


Today was fucking awesome and terrible at the same time. Rowing 5k is never fun or enjoyable no matter have many times you do it. I haven't rowed a 5k since September of last year so I was interested to see if I could improve my time. I started out pretty fast (for me) and tried to keep that pace, but I felt pretty shitty relatively quickly. My lungs were pretty much on fire and it was hard to catch my breath. I just tried to keep pushing, I slowed down a bit in the middle but near the end Stephen came over and really pushed me through to finish. The last hundred meters was a sprint and I felt like I was going to throw up but I ended up beating my old time by 1:37. I was extremely happy about that. I feel really good about how today went and I'm excited to start my individual programming next week!
