Just absolutely shattered all day today.  I couldn't face going for a faster row so thought I would do a 1:39.9 dead and see what happened to the heart rate (lowest yet)  I rated very low, but still struggled with the row with my lungs hurting a lot at the end.  I was hoping that the row would get me going and I could do two today but it does not look likely.  I think the lack of rest days and the poor warming up/down are taking their toll too.  The person who said managing them around my life would be one of the hardest challenges was right.  Sitting here after that row I cannot see myself trying for another but I will do a 2.5k warm down at 2:05 and then see how I feel.  Stranger things have happened.
Metres so far today:  1,000
What I am trying to do...
I am aiming to row 1,000m flat out every day for 40 days.  If I achieve this I will finish the day before my 40th birthday.  I have never rowed for 40 days in a row in my life.  You can read more about the challenge on my justgiving page.  This blog is a report on how I am getting on day to day.  Please donate if you can.  Every little helps.
