my baseline row was only 15 seconds faster than my average warmup time. either i am a slowpoke when rowing for time, or i am getting one hell of a warmup all the other times… ??? :)

@Melissa – you’re just that much of a badass. Normally you warm up at 95% of your ability and yesterday you managed to crank it up to 11. Well done! It’s everyone else that slacks off during their warm up rows.
