I need to remember
... I CAN, I WILL, I MUST. I need to make sure when I am participating in the
challenge to listen to my iPod, so that I don’t focus too much on my rowing. I
have to make sure I don’t look at the rowing screen so that I don’t watch the
10000m sign slowly ticking down. I find in gym sessions I watch the metres
slowly tick down and this makes me feel like giving up because it isn’t
clocking down very fast. I have decided I am going to row 1km at 100% and then
1km at 80% and carry this pattern on. I need to make sure I don’t burn out
quickly as I have 10km to do. This also gives me a wee break to gather my
breath. I just need to be positive and believe I can achieve this and I should
be fine.
