Sunday – Rainy Thriller (Masters Mix 2x)

Just one race for us on this Sunday. The Masters mix 2x with my wife Romana.

It had rained all night and was still raining when it was time to launch. Actually, the light rain changed to hard rain, to very hard rain. Temperatures had dropped from 35C to 15C. The wind was now a strong cross/tail wind.

So, the Masters Mix 2x was about to start and the Trebon lake featured twelve very wet doubles rowing up and down to stay warm. I didn’t have any long sleeve clothes in my luggage so I really had to keep moving to stay warm.

Two heats. A combined A/B heat and a combined C/D/F heat. Four boats in our C category, two of which were dangerous. Melnik and Ostrava (with Mr Cernak, the guy who had beaten me in the single).

For the first time this weekend, I managed to not mess up the start and Melnik and us were leading by a length after 5 strokes. I “lowered” to 36/37spm.

By 200m to go we were half a length behind Melnik and the rest of the field was not in the race any more.

We started to push and managed to come level to them.

My legs started to hurt.

My daughter and her double partner Iva were screaming from the bank. (They were positioned half way between the boat area and the finish line. Their race was 20 minutes after ours, so in case we won, they would jump in the boat on the medal ceremony dock. They had to watch the race and decide whether to run 250m towards the finish or not.)

I heard Romana shout “go” to indicate that she was still able to accelerate.

I remembered Damir Martin and the Olympic final against Drysdale. I heard the race speaker commenting “an interesting battle between Brno and Melnik”, and I shifted to a higher stroke rate.

Beep-beep. At the finish line, I thought we had them but I wasn’t 100% sure. I saw the girls sprinting towards us. We quickly turned the boat, and while we were waiting for the official result, I lowered the gates (moving two C rings) for the girls race. Then we heard our names announced and we paddled to the medals dock, jumped out of the boat, got our medals, removed our bow number and put in the girls’ number, smiled to the spectators on the grand stand, and left the stage.

The girls paddled away in a boat a lot of water.

That’s when it stopped raining.

Stroke rate and pace close up for the 500m

mix2x — Win by 0.34 second. Fastest time of the two heats.

After that we waited for the girls to race. They got their revenge from the bad Saturday race and came in third place, beating crews that had beaten them on Saturday. We loaded the trailer and went for lunch. Then we drove home to Brno, where we had to take some back roads to reach the rowing club, because many roads were closed because of the Motor Grand Prix, and all the Valentino Rossi fans blocking the other roads. It’s not nice driving very narrow roads with a trailer, but we managed.

A nice end of the vacation. First day at work today.

Also, I need to make a plan for the coming season. I will do another sprint race coming weekend, but more important is a 6km head race in 6 weeks which I need to prepare for.

Vacation & Friday – first row after vacation

This Friday was to be the first row after a longer break. Almost three weeks of doing nothing. After the Euromasters regatta in Munich, I had to spend a few very long days at work to finish everything that needed to be finished before my vacation, and then the Roosendaal family drove down to the Istrian peninsula in Croatia for a week at the coast:

I did one 5km run with the Garmin, to gather evidence that our AirBnB accomodation was not 500m from the sea (as advertised), and not 1km from the sea (as told to us by the owner upon arrival). It was 2.5km from the beach. Front door to sea water distance. So I guess I can add a few 5km hikes to the exercise list as well. Otherwise, it was a perfect week. Nice weather. Lots of very picturesque places to visit, good food and wine and interesting Roman historical sites. It always amazes me how you can hop in a car, drive a few hours (across the Alps) and go from Middle Europe to the Mediterranean, including the different light, different food, different architecture, different landscape …

But Middle Europe is not a bad place for a vacation either. We returned from Croatia, relaxed a few days at home in Brno (including washing up and watching Olympic rowing finals), and then we loaded the trailer with two boats and four bicycles and headed for Třeboň in South Bohemia.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

We were in Trebon to combine a few things. One, our daughter Lenka and her rowing partner Iva joined a rowing camp with the Hodonin Rowing club, and we had to bring the boats there for them to train on. Two, after a week of resting on the beach we were ready for a more active type of vacation.

We didn’t row, but enjoyed cycling. The region around Trebon is relatively flat. Because this area was close to the Iron Curtain, it is very sparsely populated and has a lot of pristine nature, covered with a web of narrow paved roads (used for Communist era border patrol vehicles, now transformed to bicycle paths). We would either ride direct from the camping site or take the train to a place 40-50 km away and then cycle back.

In the weekend, the local rowing club organized it’s annual regatta, so I decided that Friday was a good day to pick up the rowing again. First, I did a quick row in the double with my son Dominik (11 years) on the stroke seat, as a preparation for Saturday’s special 500m race in the “Masters+Boy/Girl (11-14)” category. I just wanted to get the footstretcher settings and gate heights right, and give Dominik peace of mind that he was actually able to stroke a double (and his dad to follow him). Mission accomplished.

After that I rigged and launched in the single. Rowed a 2km warming up, then a 3x250m/500m rest session, followed by a 1.5km cooling down. That was enough for the day.

Giving it a rest

In yesterday’s blog I forgot to show the results. Lost with 0.26 second margin. Look at how close the three boats were. A great race, actually.

I haven’t rowed since Sunday. I am giving myself a rest of at least 3 weeks before I start training seriously again. Of course I will go jogging a bit, and there will be hiking, and swimming in the sea, biking along the coast of Istria (Croatia) and in South Bohemia.

I will also give the blogging a rest. Back in a few weeks.

Sunday – mix double and driving home

I had difficulty falling asleep on Saturday evening. The events of the day, winning the single, Romana winning the eight, the Masters Party, combined with the hot hotel room without airconditioning, and a few beers, made it hard to fall asleep. So I watched some German TV. Then I dozed off.

The best thing about our hotel in Dachau was the breakfast. There was a huge choice of fresh pastry, fruit, eggs prepared in different ways, and as we discovered, on Sundays there was free Champagne.

Not for us. We still had one row to row.

The weather had turned 180 degrees. From sunny and hot to rainy and gray. Temperatures had dropped to 17 degrees C, from above 30 the day before.

We cycled to the race venue, about a 30 minute ride, which we felt was a very nice way to start the body and prepare it for racing.

We arrived just in time, before the rain started.

Euromasters 001 — The boats area on Sunday morning

The boats area was quite empty, with only the boats of the participants to the singles finals (Munich Trophy) and the mixed events left.

We watched the singles finals (with mixed feelings), then went to the Salani booth to pick up our club’s new youth single. After that, it was time to prepare for our race, the mixed C 2x.

The mixed races were open for registration until Saturday afternoon, and apparently the event organizers were a little exhausted when they compiled the start list. Even though we had registered only for the C event, we featured on the starting list of the A event as well. Our friends Martin and Jitka were listed on two heats of the mixed C 2x.

At the pre-start, called our race exactly when we arrived. We found that strange, because at the start there were quads preparing, and we were the fourth heat in the Mix C 2x.

It turned out that two pages of his list had stuck together because of the rain, and he skipped three heats. When he discovered that, there was a lot of confusion, and some of the crews of the first three heats were quite far away, which caused substantial delays.

Our friends Martin and Jitka got started in their second heat.

Then some time was spent calling for them during the third heat. In the end it was decided they weren’t there and their heat was started without them.

Then it was time for our race, which was reduced to a race between three boats, I guess also due to double bookings.

There was a French couple with which we had had chatted at the pre-start. I had translated the confused German and English announcements into broken French.

Then there was a German couple from Hersfelder Ruderclub. I knew Andreas, the guy at stroke, because we had rowed a quad together at Masters Worlds in Duisburg, in 2012.

I also knew he was fresh. He hadn’t started a single race during the weekend. Anyway, there was not a lot of time to think about it. We were in the starting pontoons and the starter was calling us.

Ready – Attention – Go

We started off well and quickly gained … nothing. When I peaked to the side after then strokes, there were three boats in a line. The French maybe a bit behind, and the Germans perhaps half a boat length in front.

In the next 10 strokes the Germans rowed away. When they had a length on us, we managed to stop this.

Well, you have to be patient, right?

Just after passing the 750m line I called for a 15 stroke push. We were a length behind the Germans and the French were half a boat length behind us.

We took half a length back on the Germans, but the French were still on our heels.

In the next 300m nothing really happened. Except that everything started to hurt.

Then I took up the rate again and I think we came level with the Germans. But I am not sure and have to rely on reports from people on the shore.

Everything hurt even more.

With 250m to go I didn’t have to call for a sprint. Romana knew. We took the rate up a little.

According to the post race reports from people on the shore, we came level with the Germans.

The French started a furious sprint. We responded. The Germans responded.

There were just 10 to 15 strokes left to the finish. I don’t know how many. I only remember I moaned and tried to increase the rate even more. I felt how Romana was pushing with every stroke.

Beep. Beep.

Beep.

After the finish, we only knew that the French were last. I didn’t have a good feeling, but when Andreas asked me who won, I answered I didn’t know, and proposed to row to the Finish Tower and ask.

Which we did, to find out that the Germans had won. 🙁

We did a 1km cooling down, then loaded the double on the trailer, went for a quick lunch and then it was time to hit the road.

13662352_10206556043210306_3195968126211956684_o — Traffic Jams and very bad weather

The first 30 km from Munich we drove in very heavy traffic and didn’t move a lot. Then we finally took the highway towards Berlin/Prague, which was quieter. At that moment, however, it started to rain heavily, and we couldn’t go any faster than 80km, driving our trailer through hilly country on a very wet road with very low visibility.

Made to to Prague by 7pm, where we offloaded two boats at rowing club Blesk, then continued for Brno.

We were at our local rowing club at 10pm. We disconnected the trailer and drove home. Tired. But happy. Although we were still contemplating if we could have dug a little deeper and perhaps won even the mixed double.

On Monday I went back to the rowing club to clear the boats from the trailer, put them in the racks, and assist the youth trainer in rigging the new single. Of course, there were a lot of volunteers to try it out:

Saturday – WIN!!!!

Masters B (37 years and older) single

My race was at 10:41 so almost copy-paste from Friday in terms of race preparation. The only difference was that this was going to be a very hot day. I sweated a lot during the warming up run and I drank a lot of Isostar to remain well hydrated.

The procedure would be the same. Each heat winner would get a medal and be able to call himself “Winner at Euromasters 2016” and the heat winners would automatically qualify for the “Munich Trophy” races on Sunday. In case of less than 6 heats, the open lanes would be filled with the fastest non-winners from the heat, in order of finish time. In case a rower qualifies in more than one age category, he would have to row in his own age category, and his open place would be filled with the next fastest rower, etc. I like the concept, but there is a caveat. More about that later.

The heats were organized by age, so I ended up in one of the earlier heats with a mix of C and true B single scullers. I didn’t know any of the other participants. I would find out at the start.

I decided to launch late because of the heat, so the warming up was relatively short. I rowed to the start, then continued for another 750m, turned around, did a practice start, and then paddled to the pre-start. Two Croatian rowers were missing from the race scheduled before me, so they decided to let my heat start before that one. So suddenly I was in the starting pontoon. Which was good, actually, because backing up into the starting pontoon is when my nerves usually start to calm down.

To my right was an Italian guy who looked beatable. To my left was a German guy who I noticed had some difficulty backing up into the starting pontoon. Then in lane four a broad-shouldered, big German guy. And in lane 5 an Italian guy.

Romana was on the bike path on her bike. With a few German guys who were supporting Lane 4 (Sebastian Gobel). Romana later told me that they apparently were confident their guy would win and they were making fun of the skinny Czech/Dutch guy in lane 2 (me). I believe her. You don’t have to believe her, but it’s a good story.

This time I was prepared for the starting routine, so when they started to call out the lanes, I mentally put the volume of the starter’s words lower and increased the signal in the visual channel: I watched him grab his flag, raise it, and I shot out of the starting pontoon. Practicing starts really helps.

Start strokes. Then 10 power strokes. Then check position in field.

PatrickFrostPhotography-3310-(ZF-2190-45276-1-002) — Picture taken immediately after the start. I am in lane 2 on the opposite side. You can see the bow of lane 1. The German guy in lane 4, with bow nr 16, was the favorite.

Another picture taken immediately after the start. The other guy is not in front of me. The perspective is misleading.

I was out in front. On my own. There was light between me and Lane 4.

That, I thought, is quite a good position to win.

With 900m to go, I thought, that is a lot of strokes left to spoil a perfect opportunity. Not sure whether to go to race pace directly or to continue at a slightly higher pace and build out the lead. I decided to do something in between. Focus on technique. Ten strokes on length. Ten strokes on a good tap down. Ten strokes on rhythm. That brought me to the 500m mark and I was in a comfortable lead. There was more than enough light between me and Lane 4, and the rest of the field was not a threat any more.

Romana shouted to watch out for lane 4. I knew that. He was pushing.

Instead of my usual push I let the stroke rate drop to 30spm to save energy, see what the Lane 4’s push would do to our relative positions and then respond.

Our relative positions didn’t change.

In a 1000m race, the third 250m is always the hardest one. But this time I was in a comfortable position that I could stay calm, push away at 30spm and survive the lactate rush relatively easy.

250m to go. The shadow of the grand stand. I took up the rate a bit, mainly for my fans, and also hoping to increase the gap a bit.

I wanted the race to be over. And at the same time I wanted the moment to last forever.

I saw the finish tower in my peripheral vision.

A few strokes. I heard the speaker say my name.

Beep. Finished. WIN!!!!!!

WIN!!!!

Very happy. German guy in lane 4 came second, 10 seconds behind me.

HR and stroke rate plot for the race. Pace by GPS is roughly right but the oscillations are probably data processing artifacts

We both waited for the rest of the field to finish.

I paddled to the finish tower, got my medal, and enjoyed a 1000m cooling down. Lots of pictures were taken (which I will publish later when I get them by email), and congratulations received.

Also, I had qualified for the Munich Trophy, to be rowed at 9:20 AM on Sunday. Checking the times, I would be among the three slower boats in that race, and I wondered if it was worth rowing this race, knowing that I wanted to row well in the mix double a few hours later on Sunday.

Later that Saturday afternoon I went to the finish tower and officially withdrew from the race. I had prioritized the mixed row with Romana.

Men Masters A (27 years and older) quad

Only two hours after the singles race, I stroked an ad hoc quad with two other Czech Rowers (the guys in below picture) and a Slovak guy from Piest’any. I guess we were a true Czechoslovak team. Even though our age was C (43 and older), due to our late registration we had to compete in the A category. We also had some difficulty complying with the “uniform clothing rule”. We decided for black shorts and white shirts. I wore my club shirt inside out (sort of white) over my black/red training uni.

The Italian crew next to us got an official warning for not being uniformly clothed, and I kind of expected to get a warning as well, but we passed.

We rowed well, but two German boats were much too fast for us. We had some nice racing for the third place with the Italian crew.

Romana and her eight won the D category in a three boat race that turned out to be a thriller.

In the evening, Romana and I took the double for a quick row. Just 4km to check the boat. Then we took a shower and dressed up for the Masters Party. Dancing to a Bavarian live band and mediocre food, and beer, what could you wish more! Good food perhaps. The beer was excellent though.

Thunderstorms in the distance while we cycled home.

Friday – Racing and supporting

Masters C (43 year and older) single

My race was planned for 10:44. The line-up was interesting

Lane 1: Petr Mitas, representing NED but a Czech, De Laak – yes the same guy that beat me at the Czech Open Masters

Lane 2: me, representing CZE, but a Dutchman

Lane 3: GER Michael Helbig

Lane 4: ITA Massimo Patea

Frank Arnold from Germany had withdrawn.

So this bunch was the four youngest participants in the C category. At Euromasters, the singles categories race as follows. Each winner of a heat gets a medal and proceeds to the final. If there are fewer than six heats, the next fastest times qualify for a final as well. If a rower qualifies in more than one age category, he will row the final in his age category, and for the other age category the next fastest time will be selected, so there was an incentive to row fast whatever your position in the field. The finals (one for each age category) for the “Munich Trophy” would be rowed on Sunday morning, before the Mixed events, and the winner would get the Munich Trophy. The nrs 2 and 3 in the final would get a medal.

After my usual warming up routine I found myself at the pre-start with Petr and the rest of the field. Petr and I started chatting (and got reprimanded for being too noisy). Then it was time to row.

Ready

Attention

(I almost shot out of the starting pontoon now but managed to control myself, while the starter was grabbing his flag)

Red flag went up

GO! Red flag down. We were off. Here is a picture of Petr (the guy in blue in the background) and myself doing our first stroke.

Ready - Attention - Go! — Ready – Attention – Go!

Despite the almost false start, my real start was an excellent one. By the 5th stroke I was leading by a length, with Petr in second position.

I managed to stay ahead of Petr in the first 250m, but the distance between us became smaller with every stroke. With 750m to go he passed me. Given my previous race experience with this guy, I decided to stick to my race plan and race for time, as well as defend the second place.

SpeedCoach graph (exported through FIT file to Strava to Rowsandall.com) – not sure whether the wavy splits are a SpeedCoach FIT export artefact or a real thing. Here is a quick plot that I made from the CSV export:

It shows better how the race evolved. I started very fast and then gradually dropped to my race pace as Petr was passing me. The 4.4 m/s of the second half of the race corresponds to a 1:53 pace. I pretty much rowed this out in a flat pace, keeping an eye on the German guy. While rowing in front of the grandstand (which is a full 250m long), I noticed a few 1:58 splits on the SpeedCoach, which motivated me to try and speed up a bit. In the end I was just 4 seconds behind Petr.

Also in the overall ranking I didn’t do bad. I had the 7th time overall, out of 38 participants. I was the fastest guy not qualifying for the finals for the Munich Trophy. 🙁

As this was all my racing for the day, I had the afternoon free to enjoy watching Romana racing, browsing through the merchandise, have a beer, and chat with various people.

Romana was racing an eight and a quad, both races in a younger field than her crew’s age category. They finished last in both races but they took it as a good rehearsal for the Saturday races.

Regarding the photos, I am reproducing the excellent pictures taken by Natascha Kral and the race pictures that I purchased from the official race photographer Patrick Frost. Only the lower quality pictures taken with a phone are my own.

In the evening I did a quick training in an ad hoc quad that we registered on Thursday afternoon. With the high price for late registration, we counted that we would pay 1,50 EURO for each stroke during the race, and although we were age category C they would only let us start in the A category. Still it was attractive enough and the race was on Saturday after my B singles race, so no clashes with high priority races.

Then Romana and I cycled to Dachau. We had an excellent Italian dinner at Mamma Rosa, a very nice place, and then went to our hotel.

Thursday – Driving to Munich and test of new SpeedCoach GPS Model 2

The drive to Munich was without incidents. We left Brno around 9am and arrived at the regatta course at 3:15pm. The weather was nice and the site was bustling with activity. Romana went off to do her training in the quad and I went to the accreditation to get registered.

Then I walked to the other side of the canal to see Daniela and Dave from Rowline. These guys from Prague were the official Concept2 reps at the regatta, but they also sell NK electronics. I picked up my pre-ordered NK SpeedCoach GPS 2 (and received a 20 seconds introduction on how to operate it) and then proceeded to prepare my single for a row.

The row was a short one. The plan was 3x250m at race pace, with 500m rest. I did a 2k warming up which unfortunately wasn’t captured on the SpeedCoach, because I couldn’t find Just Row in the list of workouts. It turns out you just press the on/off button to get the device ready to record your Just Row and that’s all. This rugged piece of electronics with a simple monochrome display (which is excellent in sunny weather, by the way) works by pressing buttons, in contrast to CrewNerd where everything is done on your phone’s touch screen. I have to get used to that.

At the 2km mark I turned and went into the workouts menu to program my 3x250m workout. That turned out to be pretty intuitive. I like that you can program rest in meters or seconds, whatever you want. I set a 10 seconds countdown, started the workout and waited to see what happened. To be honest I did expect an audio signal at the workout start and end, which didn’t happen. I did the first 250m from a standing start, and looking down at a small screen doesn’t go with sitting in the ideal start position. I am not sure if the clock starts ticking after the end of the countdown or only when it registers your first stroke. Need to look into that. For now it seems that the countdown is more suited to pieces with running starts.

Anyway, I successfully recorded this session. I also was able to look at the session details on the device itself. I liked that.

The graphs were made on rowsandall.com, after I exported the data from the SpeedCoach to a FIT file, which I could upload to Strava, which enabled me to import the data into rowsandall.com. There is something fishy about the data though, so I will need to look into that.

The export of data works through LiNK, an application that runs on your computer. That is nice, but one doesn’t always have a computer at hand, and I think it would be good to be able to sync data to a tablet computer or smartphone directly from the device. Especially for self-tracking athletes, it is quite nice to be able to share workout data immediately through Strava or similar websites.

Here is the session information from the CSV file export:

The CSV file export also has a stroke by stroke table with time, stroke rate, pace, and heart rate information. Rowsandall.com cannot yet process this CSV file but I will work on that. Should be straightforward. It’s a pity that GPS coordinate info is missing from that file, though. I will need to look into a way to upload the FIT file to rowsandall.com directly.

So all in all I am happy with the device but I see a few points to improve (in a next firmware upgrade?):

Add audio signals – may be hard if there is no way to produce audio
Export full data (GPS, Heart Rate, stroke rate, pace) also for the rest between the intervals
Add GPS coordinates to the CSV file export
Develop a smartphone app to synchronize data from the speedcoach while on the go. (Travel, training camp, etc). Ideally the smartphone app has a feature to connect to Strava, TrainingPeaks, SportTracks, Concept2 logbook

I guess there is work to do to free the NK SpeedCoach data a bit more.

After the row we went off to our hotel, had a dinner and then went bed. Friday – racing day.
