10,000m on Concept2 Model C, 44:28, 17 JUL 07, Fort Campbell KY

Today hurt. Bad. Some of this is attributable to not having touched a Concept in a few months, but that Concept Model C was calling me today.

Too bad I wasn't really equal to the challenge. I was rowing into the red zone just to hold 2:08/500m, something which I used to be able to do with ease just a few months ago.

Most of it was actually done at about 2:15/500m pace, which is pretty pathetic.

Some of it could be that I've been lifting more, some of it can be pointed to have to refine my form (I'd gotten sloppy at first) and some of it could be that I'm just not in the same conditioning that I was in beforehand.

On the other hand, no one so much as approached me on the Concept, and so I was able to row mostly unmolested. In the heat, which may also have been a factor. So much CO2 and lactate had built up in my body though that last stretch I almost woofed right after finishing, which I was holding at max effort to get all of a 2:06/500m pace. Weak!
