Today was a perfect day for running.  I probably should've gone, but I wanted to row after yesterday's long run.  I felt surprisingly good, though, and pleasantly went a bit faster than I expected.

Most of the erg was spent at what I consider normal training intensity, about the same pace in between aerobic and anaerobic threshold, but the last 500m I, perhaps unwisely, decided to try to get my time under 34:30 as I was originally anticipating erging only about 35:00.

As usual, I'm the only yahoo on the Concept2.  Works for me as there's only one.
