  • Ride, Rest, Row

    Quick training update today.
    Yesterday was a rest day after the 112k bike ride, and I still felt it in my legs this morning. I went to the gym for a recovery row, 7,000m at a slow stroke rate, strong pulls, and all about form over speed.

    Ride, rest, row. It works.

    It was exactly what I needed. I felt great afterwards and had the headspace to reflect on Sunday’s ride. I’ve cycled further before, and certainly faster, but doing that distance in bad weather and on a day when I wasn’t feeling it makes it all the more satisfying in hindsight.

    This is The Sub-7 Experiment.
