mud challenge

planning on doing the 5k part of the mud challenge. anybody know whether this can be done in intervals or must it be a straight 5K each time?

8x500 pieces as indicator of predicted 2k time

can you roughly predict your 2k time from your 500 interval times? yet to do a 2k on the skierg so don't really have an idea what to set out for which means I could go too hard or too slow. currently doing 8x500 with 1 minutes rest at an average of 2.11.

any ideas???

thanks in advance!

virtual app

I was wondering if there was a virtual app out there for training on the skierg. Seem to be able to find them for the rower and cycle but not the skierg.

anybody know of one?

Happy new year all!

Thanks

Re: new to SkiErg

Thanks for the ideas and tech advice. She's being delivered a week today so I'll have my first blast on Saturday and take it from there. I'm sure I will be back on asking for a few more tips etc!

Thanks again

Re: half marathon

Hi again Thanks for the input. I think I will do one low stroke rate session per week and build that up in terms of time spent on the rower, along with a 15k session, a 10k and a 5k. That should get me up to 40+k a week which I think is all I will have time for. How does that sound? I'll probably po...

Re: half marathon

Thanks for that

Do you think some low stroke rate stuff would be beneficial?
