Thursday morning rowing, 2,000m (10:56.8) warm up, then 15,000m for the Virtual Team Challenge,

Tiredness is starting to show in the pace and overall times, I think I will drop from 15,000m in the main workouts to 10,000m as this is more in my preferred distance ballpark, doing 20,000m+ a day is just draining me.
Friday morning skiing, 1,000m (5:45.8) warm up, then 10,000m for the Virtual Team Challenge,

Saturday was largely a rest day, no rowing on the river due to ‘red boards’ and the landing stage being under water, although I did put in a 1,131m SkiErg piece just to ensure I added the day and pushed the other totals along.
Day seven, the daily total is 1 day, 1,131m, 63 calories and 5 minutes, running totals are: 7 days, 111,156m, 6,061 calories and 9 hours 26 minutes.
Sunday morning rowing, after 1 2,000m (9:16.7) warm up, I decided to do the AT workout from our club training program – 5 x 1,500m @ 26spm, 1:00 rest.
I wanted to hold the 1:52.3 pace for all 5 sets, however after the third one, this clearly wasn’t happening, happy with the overall average pace of 1:53.9, this is better than my 4,000m PB pace and even my last 1,500m was faster than my 5,000m PB pace, not bad for 7,500m (with gaps).
Day eight, the daily total is 1 day, 12,437m, 762 calories and 45 minutes, running totals are: 8 days, 111,156m, 6,823 calories and 10 hours 12 minutes.
