I was shattered the rest of the night yesterday evening. I felt absolutely empty. I felt very tired and I was in bed by 10:15, but I slept a bit fitfully. I have a pain in my shoulder blade which must be related to something in my neck because I get shooting pains when I turn my head especially to the right. This is causing me some troubles when I turn over in bed.
I woke up at 5:15 feeling sore and tired. I got to work and I was on the erg by about 6:30.
The plan:
- Half Marathon
- L4 format
- power: 10W x stroke rate
- rate plan:
- Start slow at 16spm, get up to working rate over the first 10 minutes
- Then 7 x
- 1000m @ 18
- 750m @ 19
- 500m @ 20
- 250m @21
- HR Cap 155
The plan ended up lasting through the first 7500m minutes. After that, I was approaching the cap, and feeling pretty crappy. I did 2500 minutes at 17 to finish the block, and then rowed the last 10000m at 18. Even with this reduced load, I was still pushing up to the cap at the end. I have had rows where I felt like I was gliding along effortlessly, this was NOT one of those rows. It was slow and nasty work.
