yep, although I might even start a little slower and see how it went. your long distance rows would be ahead of mine.
I checked out the profile of the guy who would be my main adversary if I did enter rowing comps later in the year and his half marathon time was 2.07/500.
his stats were interesting actually - he'd crush me on 500 and is currently a way ahead on 1k and 5k but he's slower than me on 2k and I'd guess I could beat the half marathon.
