5th June.......10k run or row - I chose rowing...

similar to saying rock or a hard place......
but long distance is something else......I don't know what it is - I am intimidated by it before I start, and then I get going and   at half way - I am goining 'home' and after I cry or nearly cry....almost always.


I have run half marathons before - same thing - I sort of hated it and sort of loved it- and oddly enough I do alright on long steady paced things.....even though I am pretty heavy....


so today I hit the rower......I was filling water and meddling around alot before I got started but I did it!


Goal was to do it in 50 mins




I did it in 47:05!!!! 
all I could think for the last 200 meters was Finish strong!
yay me!


Big shout out to all the people at Regionals!!!! I follow you on Twitter - Europe, NorCal.....MidAtlantic...
What machines! Amazing efforts!.
Special thoughts go to Jenny Jacobsen and Team Buthcer's Garage, Anders Galaly and Fredrik Ægidius (From Butcher's Garage in Denmark).  And of course the Amazons Annie T and Sam !!!! 




Peace. Love. CrossFit.
