I’m trying a couple of changes: Compiling workouts into a weekly blog post to decrease the amount of “noise” I’m generating, and incorporating a structured bodyweight conditioning program (Convict Conditioning) along with anything else I want to work in (e.g. Rowing, Barbells, Kettlebells).

Rowed 2k… but was too strong out of the gate with no warmup…. bonked quickly and just gutted through the remainder. Time: 10 minutes (PR was 8:32 in January ’10)
Cardio not coming back as strong as I thought from the lung infection.
We also got a nice 2hr 4 mile hike in this evening using the Vibram Five Finger shoes. After a two week break-in period, this was the first long outing with them. Didn’t intend for it to be quite so long, but I failed to review the trail prior to setting out, and _thought_ I knew how it ran… D’OH!!

AM:
Warmup/Workout: 2000m Row, 9:01 (Needed an easy start for first 1000m and poured it on in the later 500m after I had gotten good and warmed up to come within 30 seconds of my PR… good strong finish)
Last year at this time I could barely see my toes. Now with my feet together I can slowly stretch down and touch the floor without bending my knees. Heck, I know it don’t sound like much, but at my age I’ll take the small victories and motivation where ever I can find them… LOL

Programmed in a 2K Row and started off briefly as a warmup, but felt consistent, so I quickly stepped up the pace and noticed I wasn’t too far off my PR in the first 1000 meters. Was able to hold that pace well, breathing comfortably, so in the last 1K I kept stepping up the power and pace.
2K Row
Time: 8:32 (PR)
Finished 18 seconds faster than my previous best 3 weeks ago. I have to admit, a few days ago Penny beat my PR by a few seconds, and she seems to have my number on the 2K and higher rowing distances, but this time I prevailed and retook the “Household” PR…. she still has the 5K PR though, and I’ve tried a couple of times to beat that to no avail…. but one of these days!!!!

2K Row, 8:50, a PR by 13 seconds (Previous 9:03).
I was going to do a 2K at a 10 minute pace as a “warmup”, but started feeling spunky about 1/2 through, so I dug a little deeper. Didn’t get anaerobic until the final 150 meters. I’d tried unsuccessfully a few weeks ago to get a PR on the 2K, but had in fact done worse (9:07), so I was pleased with how I felt/did tonight.
Was going to do 1/2 Renegade KB Rows and KB Windmills, but the 2K row was enough so I called it a night.
