A-a-a-a-a-nd...

I almost forgot to tell you, I got my first strict pullup today! from
a dead hang to chin over the bar. I told Kirsten, who was inside
starting on dinner. She said, "I didn't see it," so we went out
together and I did another one! Woo-Hoo! I've been trying to get
that since July. I watched a video of trainer Adrian Bozman saying
that before a person works on kipping pullups, they should have at
least one strict pullup. So kippers, here I come!

Indoor Time Trails

Hi!
Since today marks the beginning of a new season for me, I thought I would begin with a baseline 2K test.  Kirsten wants to do hers next week, so she did a 15 minute time trail.

Here are the stats:
Charles:
TT 2K  Time - 7:45.6  28spm@1:56.4/500m
500m splits (spm@time/500m:)
28@1:56.5
27@1:59.2
29@1:56.3
30@1:53.7
I'm pleased with this as a starting point; last year's best was 7:43.something. Must be the outdoor rowing and the Crossfit!   :)

Kirsten wants to do her 2K next week, so...
TT 15 min
3307m  29spm@2:16.0/500
3 min splits (spm@time/500:)
29@2:13.9
29@2:16.3
29@2:16.1
29@2:18.4
30@2:15.0

I've set goals for the Winter and have been corresponding with CFE people about putting together an effective workout schedule. I'll post more about that soon, once I get it settled.

Ciao,

Charles
