So I am officially mental. Warming down I couldn't bear the thought of one row only at a "slow" pace. I had to try for another rep. This I duly did, and when I have recovered I will no doubt re-type this post. But it was strange, more pain, higher heart rate but mentally easier!
Later: I just felt bad having at least tried to be faster on every other row. Today I was not ready to row. I just did not fancy it. So I did not bother to warm up and just went for it. The first row was long and difficult. I was shattered at the end. But after the row I warmed down pretty hard and during that row I started to feel better and like I could try for another - albeit slowly.
I lowered the drag factor and planned to row at a faster stroke rate. I also wanted to be ahead at half way and then hold on. This is what happened. It hurt like hell, my heart was racing, but mentally I found it a little easier. This must be because I was fully and properly warmed up.
