I had a hole in my schedule so I squeezed in an hour in the gym.  I wasn’t sure how well it go, so I started slow and sped up in each interval.

The targets were:

1. 2:08
2. 2:06
3. 2:04
4. 2:02
5. 2:00

Actual results were:

First interval was interrupted about 2 minutes in.  I was rowing on slides and it was horrible.  I think the shock cords are going, or the slides were out of alignment or something.  I couldn’t get a smooth stroke in to save my life.  I jumped off the erg, yanked it off the slides and finished the session that way.

Heart rate data was wonky in the first interval, but calmed down after that.

I liked to see the plateau at 151 for a 2:00 pace.  Maybe my aerobic fitness isn’t as bad as I fear.

Tomorrow:  Back on the training plan…

Short rest intervals:  4 x (5 x 2′ on / 30″ paddle) / 2′ rest

Target r26 and 2:15 pace
