Bring it together

This past week has been spent bringing the intensity up on the pieces we row. It has been increasing the stroke rate into unchartered territory for me. In a single I would try to hit race-pace rates of 32-34 Strokes/minute, sometimes up to a "crazy" 35. But, in larger boats and when the rhythm is all coming together the rates can bounce up surprisingly quick. As more time passes at these high rates, upwards of 38-40, I feel more and more comfortable (in a relative sense). I have lots to work on still, and my top-end "catch" is still problematic. Have a look, I still like what I see. This was part of a 250m on/250m easy, fartlek style workout.
