2K Timed Today (Test after one Round of PP and another round that was interrupted with being sick).

400 / 1:49.3 / 27
800 / 1:51.2 / 25
1200 / 1:52.0 / 25
1600 / 1:52.6 / 25
2000 / 1:53.0 / 25

7:26.5 / 2000 / 1:51.6 / 25 SPM

Probably to be expected. Felt like, based on PP, I could be around a 7:24. Didn't take a day off this week and lifted this week. The Waterfall took a lot out of me two days ago. Had I taken today off (or just did a few fast sprints), and paced it better, probably could have hit 7:24. Also, was racing against the "pace boat" for the first time. Not exactly adrenaline inducing! My PB (and the one that nearly tied it) were both set on race days and the first one was by 7 seconds, so this is a pretty accurate benchmark for me right now.

SPM is much lower, though. Shows all the SS work with higher drag did build my strength, because my power per stroke is much stronger. Now, just have to get the SPM back up to 27 or 28 again and not lose much power.
