Day 17 - Notice of Marriage :) Plus breaking the rules!!!

4 lots of 15 minutes today, 6min/9min split at 2:16/2:26 Anita and 1:53/2:02 for me.

Started the day at the registrars in Colchester formally giving notice of our marriage in June next year, ended it with what now seems an easy session on the Concept2, but in week 1 was very difficult.

We actually were a bit naughty and had a bit of a sprint for the last 30 or so seconds, putting 40 metres on my distance (In the 1:20's for about 20 seconds) and 30 metres on for Anita. It bodes pretty well for the rest of the training :)

Anita: 12789m
Andy: 15306m

Cumulative: 537686m (334.2 miles)

The Journey:
Start - Topnotch Gym Colchester CO4 9ES
Finish - Juvigny, Marne, France http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juvigny,_Marne

Day 16 - 500km up!!!!!!!

Back to week 1 this week - 2 lots of 30 minutes, 2:29 for Anita, 2:05 for me.

No music tonight as we couldn't find Anita's headphones (Somehow they got into the bottom of my bag) so a nice boring row :)

Anita now says it feels like a bit of a cheat only doing an hour :) and that she wants to go faster than she is - Good signs.

I hit a nice rhythm at 24 strokes/min whilst watching Anglia Tonight - Doubt that is a sentence that has ever been written before :)

Anita - 12083m
Andy - 14404m

Cumulative - 509951m (316.7 miles)
