"Down the Ladder"

Row 1,600 meters (rest 2 minutes)

6.07.0; 1.54.6 (25)

Row 1,200 meters (rest 2 minutes)

4.34.3; 1.54.2 (25)

Row 800 meters (rest 2 minutes)

3.01.5; 1.53.4 (26)

Row 400 meters

1.29.5; 1.51.8 (27)

Notes:  Cool little workout with a slightly different stimulus.  The rest stays the same, but the interval length shortens.  My goal was to increase my pace on each interval.  Interestingly, I did this workout back in December of 2012 and totally bombed out.  I held a 1.52.0 pace on the 1,600 and a 1.51.2 pace on the 1,200.  However, I completely tanked and dropped to a 2.01.5 pace on the 800 and a 2.00.1 pace on the 400.  Much better this time around.
