Lorena missed a day or two in her exercise routine over the Thanksgiving break. The first day she returned to work out, she broke her previous record by a good chunk. Maybe it was the additional rest and maybe it was all that good turkey and mashed potatoes, but she is less than a minute away from hitting her longstanding goal of rowing 12,000 meters in under an hour. It is hard to describe what a herculean effort was required to get this far. She has been rowing consistently now for eight or nine years, rarely missing any of her workouts–two days per week on on elliptical (45 minutes) and two days per week on a a Concept 2 rower (60 minutes). Congratulations on the new record.
