In Taiwan at the Ambassador Hotel in Hsinchu. I arrived this morning at 6am, and was at the hotel by 7:15. I unpacked, called home, and the got into my gym clothes. I was planning another fitness center snooze-fest.
I made a delightful discovery. In the fitness center, there was an old Model D with PM2.
On top of that rower, there was a person. The person was rowing. Slowly. Underhand. I got on the treadmill closest to the erg and started to do some inclined marching. I figured he couldn’t go on too long like that. He didn’t I hopped off the treadmill at the six minute mark and jumped on the erg.
New plan: 2 x 30′ / 2′ with a HR cap at 155.
This turned out to be a challenge. Between jet lag, fatigue, immobility, and dehydration, my HR climbed steadily and even when I slowed way down, it stayed high.
Despite that I enjoyed the session thoroughly.
Tomorrow morning: First crack at the CTC, at R24, just to get the hang of it.
Quantified Rowing 
My oldest rowing no data set is old notebooks with split times from the PM2.
I threw away the data from the model A.
Always a pleasant surprise to discover an erg.
