For one of my sports, I'm getting my running up again. Since technique is king, I'm going back to my 6 weeks of CFE homework. If you want to find it, look for the blog "Unscared."
Drills
2 rounds of:

1x 2' at 91bpm

She said that I should go out and row. Yeah, right. Then I checked Facebook. Friend Sarah had a picture from earlier this morning of flat water, perfect for rowing.

The data. I don't quite get the stroke rate data. Every time I checked I was about 18spm. I'm sure I never got to 35. Anyway, here it is:
