Hadnt rowed for 3 days owing to north antiques fair s parker....came on today 1815 due to busy day had planned slower longer but no time as rich and moni 1800hrs woolpack. Started off felt v strong think 6880m at 30 mins....but last 2000m really faded and left arm v weak, slowed up but still pushing ok...blowing v hard but reasonable time. Think have to do some sprint work/visit forums....if going to get near 20000 calorie challenge need a couple v long days.
