    Did we win?

    Fun fact. I rowed a 10k on the C2 two weeks ago. 40:20. Not bad for an older guy. Tried to keep 2 min average. Fell a bit short. Shit got real at about 7k.
    Yes. That’s a very respectable old guy time. You’re a tuff old geezer and not a pussy.

    I need to get my ass in shape before I poast the yellow piss C2 2000 meter challenge. I think we’ll get some takers. We’ll have age divisions @MikeDamone plus light weight and heavy weight categories. Everyone will be a winner!

    Jeeze man - we’ve got a lotta readers here that like row boat content and there’s only so many races per year. Stanford cares a bit about rowing - they are #13 in the country. We also beat #6 northeastern at the same race.

    You can come over to my garage when you’re ready to do your official piece for time.

    Cal is 3. They are strong every year. But their corch just left to coach the men’s national team full time.

    I lied. Cal is ranked #4 in the country. Harvard is #3.

    Shitty as hell right now. I couldn’t hold 2:00 splits for 10,000 meters right now. Probably would be around 2:05 for that distance. At UW I used to be able to hold 1:44 over 10,000 and 1:39 over 6000. Glory days they’ll pass you by.

    But I’m no longer a cubicle monkey so the splits should drop a lot over the coming months

    I'm more of a sprinter than a endurance fag. 12.8 for 100m.

    Only if you are good at it. Ever fuck up a line through a rapid? You'll be doing a lot more cardio than just rowing.

    Especially if you fuck up on a river back in Appalachia near @Swaye ‘s trailer. You’ll be squealing like a pig in no time.

    I was so inspired by @MikeDamone I just did a quick 20 min C2 piece on my lunch break. 20 mins at 20 SPM. 2:05 splits. Fuck I'm old and out of shape.

    I had no idea what you guys were talking about with a "C2." Figured you actually went out on a boat and did some rowing or some shit. So I'm just now back from the gym at work. I've been trying to get back into shape (other than "round") the last couple of months and getting back into the gym. My workouts always start with a warmup on the rowing machine, usually with a mile in about seven minutes.

    Today, I sit down on the machine and start rowing, the screen lights up, and it flashes the C2 logo. I'm like, "Oh! Fuck! This thing is what they're talking about!?"

    Now, I'm not about to be on the "what's your bench?" thread bragging about my single digit number, but I figure, "Alright, here's my chance. I'm gonna rowboat like a motherfucker and then go back to HH and swing some dick."

    If that fat fuck Damone can pull 2:00 splits, that's what I'm shooting for. So I start rowboating like mad...

    ...and collapse at 2500m. 2:00.7 split time. Hung my head in shame and retreated to the elliptical like a bitch. So I guess I'm back to HH to, I don't know, jiggle some micropenis?

    csb

    LOL. Most cardio type machines are crap except for the C2 because you can actually strengthen almost all your muscle groups with it and get anaerobic in a hurry. It’s arguably the best all around piece of fitness equipment ever invented. Hence the popularity with the Cross Fit bros.

    I did letter at UW in Row Boat so PM me if you ever want C2 advice.

    ps Danone’s time indicates he’s not a fat fuck. He must be skrong AF from lifting toilette all day.

    Not a rowboater, middle distance runner where we use 400m splits.

    Thought he miss typed the distance and meant 500m instead of 2500m.

    It's hard.

    I know. But Damone's 14,000+ posts suggest he is!

    This is what I picture every single HH poster (myself included) looks like:
