I had originally intended to come on here and complain about todays WOD which was a 3000m row. I was going to let you know how much I dislike rowing and how hard I find it to push myself during a long row.
However, today I changed up my routine. I know that negativity leads to negative results so(while I may have complained a little-oops!) I tried to focus on how much my rowing has improved lately. Then, I secretly set an optimistic goal of just under a 2:10(per 500m) pace.
Guess what? I was able to hold my pace and actually do better than expected with an average pace of 2:08ish and a final time of 12:51.4ish(can't remember exactly). Even more important I felt GOOD after I was finished. Well, I suppose the word good is all relative.
So, my advice is- the next time you face a WOD that scares you confront it with a postive attitude. Trust me, you will feel much better before, during and after.
