I don't mind a few minutes' rowing down the gym, but to do it for hour after hour is just nuts.Comment

Well we do it on the water
Good to hear you're still rowing Kuci, think I mentioned before I row as well.
Don't think I've ever managed 5-6000 kcals, in the weeks leading upto big races and 25-30hr a week I might get to 4k or so.
My 2k PB last year was 6:20.7, but i blew dramatically last time i did one (last week) and only got 6:45ish.. I am older and heavier (i hope) than you though, at 6'6" and 220lbs.Comment

They're looking pretty damn good really. I know Buschbacher a bit, as i have gotten drunk with him and Nate Kirk from last years crew a few times. They're good guys.
On paper it looks a very close race, and i think it might be. Last year was a bit of a trashing, which though fun is a bit anti-climatic if you got one crew ahead by 4 lengths for 2/3s of the race.
I am going to go down to the Henley Boatraces on the Saturday as some of my friends are racing the CUWBC and the CUWLRC boats. Then off to the London for the night and a day of much greasy food and drinking on the Sunday.Comment

Eating 5k + calories a day
I do that most every day
And rowing, while it may be boring, will make you HUGE. It's hard work."Luck's last match struck in the pouring down wind." - Chris Cornell, "Mindriot"Comment

He is obviously rowing 5.5 hours so he can eat 6k calories. Duh.I changed my signatureComment

Sounds utterly boring...there has to be something more interesting you can do surely?Speaking of Erith:

Alex Sieke (a kid on my team last year, on varsity) had something like a 6:12 and got recruited to Princeton - full scholarship, IIRC - with a 3.2 GPA (if that)Originally posted by Drogue
Actually, that's about what I can do. Though I struggle on anything over 500m
I'm just amazed when Xav goes off and does a 6:27 
he's at a 6:06 now

I would be more impressed if you ingested 500-600 calories daily.
I've done it (for only a couple days), and it isn't easy.Comment
