Did a 1:33.3 for my 500 last night but know I can do better. I set the resistance to 1 to see if that would help, big mistake. I had to pull so fast to keep it going. Shouldn't have done that. Live and learn...

500m tonight @ 1:36.8. If I could have kept the pace up I might have busted the 1:30 barrier, but I was done @ 400m and just rode it out. Will try it again later this week.

First try at a 5k today, 21:14 I think I'll be able to cut that down quite a bit but I feel it's a good baseline.

Just topped my best 30 minute distance record. I pulled a 2:00min pace the last 10mins. I was especially proud of that.

I'm not worthy. I just got a machine and I can't sustain a sub 2 minutes 500m for more than about 4 minutes. After that I get lung pump.

500m from yesterday... 1:28.5

little disappointed considering how strong I started. Thought i had at least a 1:26 time locked up....then my legs died, but theres still plenty of time to get better...

5000m: 20:12.1

I'm going the wrong way on my times this week. I'm beginning to believe the 98-100 degree heat here in NC is starting to get to me. Well the old age doesn't help either. I'm going to break under 20 min for 5k if it kills me, and it probably will.

Guys I am back from the CrossFit Games and even got to ride with Chris Dennison from DirtRider at Piru. Everone is doing awesome and I have some catching up to do. I leave for Loretta Lynn's on Saturday so if i am not on for a while it is because Hurricane Mill's Tennesse has spotty cell service. Keep it up! - Greg

Off to Loretta Lynn's with soon to be two very "pimped out" Model E rowers for the challenge. I will be sure to post pictures here but you might be better of following the events on Twitter. Search for Concept2MXMMA and I will get as much up as I can. Here is a link to the Twitter main page http://twitter.com/

Still haven't really mixed a hard 2000 or 500 into my workout schedule yet this week, but i did pull a 7:07.1 (I'd have to double check) doing warm-ups before working out. That was actually better than my last 2000

Was headed for a 1:28 but gassed out
