Row 45 minutes (aerobic restoration)
9,363 meters; 2.24.1 (20) (147)
Notes: Third quality rowing session of the week. Really settled into this one at about the half-way point. Second half of piece was actually faster than the first half -- a negative split. No blood sugar issues today either. Heart rate stayed mostly in the high-130s/low-140s, but touched 147 toward the end. Actually felt as though I could've gone for longer today; an hour, maybe. I like this week's schedule of an interval day, a "race" day, and an aerobic restoration day. I plan to keep rolling with this schedule for the time being. In the gym tomorrow morning for a hard workout: 5 rounds, for time, of: 9 burpees, 6 hang power cleans (155), and 3 thrusters. I got hammered by the 155 load last year during this workout, but think my improved leg strength should help me plow through it this time around.
A freight train is strong, powerful, and steady across long distances. A freight train only goes "off the tracks" if it gets going at a pace faster than it can sustain. Bobby Scott Performance believes that a large volume of sub-maximal efforts paired with intelligently programmed bouts of intensity will develop a strong, powerful competitor with a huge aerobic base -- in other words, "an aerobic freight train."
