Went to pace with Jag today.

My last rowing session before the race.

Tried the new stroke.

Its not too great, maybe I wasn't twisting enough.

But one thing is for sure, if I do that for the race day I'm going to be behind Jason, and Jag.

So I did something completely insane and upped my cyclic speed by 200% and heck cared about power. And guess what, ended up damn far ahead of Jag for the last 250m set.

But the thing is... although it seems to be super effective, I've never actually tried something like that in any simulation before.

So how? If I do what I normally do I can only hope to finish on par with jag. But if I do the insane stroke, theres a chance that I may speed far far away. But there is also a chance that I will bust and tire out due to the isnane cyclic speed for a 500m race.

Its a do or die situation.

Redwind says I should go for the insane stroke...

I may just do it.

A newbie shall defeat the top seeded rowers with hard work.
