8,000m on Concept2 Model D, 34:34.9, 4 JUN 14, Kabul, Afghanistan

Today is day 194 of the campaign.

iThink:
Hilary Duff, "Wake Up"

WX at Noon (16) Jun 04     75 (24)     33 (1)     30.00 (1016)     NNE 3 RH 22

Odometer 13B: 356.8mi

Z3 start, Z4 finish.  Average/max heart rate = 158/170

First row in a long while.  I decided to row in lieu of an easy run.  My row wasn't very easy, though.  I went mostly above aerobic threshold, but decided to finish hard, and did.

I was pleasantly surprised at holding a first 2000m at under 2:08/500m, although the 3000m before the end is where I got tired - and until the last 1600m, where I decided to go into oxygen debt but not all out.  I think this is the fastest one in a while - but certainly not my PB at this distance, which I did back in 2009.


Okay, back to work.
