How Far Did You Row Today?

[[old] ancho]

HM today, trying to keep the mileage up, and also trying to get comfortable with the Model D.<br />Some thoughts about Model D:<br />- I find it feels "harder", it has taken me a whole lot of time to get an acceptable split<br />- It is less noisy<br />- I got a more "direct" or sensitive feeling. I don't know if it's because of the new handle or because of the stone floor in my home, but I really feel the vibrations of the erg in my wrists and ellbows!<br />- It takes me more to get used to the new handle than I thought: strange feeling in the wrists, elbows and shoulders, and I have 3 new blisters in my hands (1st ever erging!)<br />- PM3 is great! Already created the profiles for my 3 kids.<br />- And waiting for rowpro!

13.8K yesterday, 15K today. Just received my Model D last week and have gotten some new blisters due to the new handle configuration. Will probably go easy the next few days to toughen up the hands.<br />Kim
