There was a lot of studying to be done. I also trained like a demon. And in the run up to the Atlantic, I would do regular training, between one hour and three hours a day, but then for five consecutive Sundays, I did 16 hours of rowing sessions replica IWC 5021-19 Men's Watch on the rowing machine. And I would do that in four shifts for four hours, with an hour off in between. Id start at noon on a Saturday and finish up around breakfast the next day. That training regime didnt really stand me in very good stead for the Atlantic.
So my first ocean row, for the Atlantic, I actually did do detailed spreadsheets based on having monitored my weight and my calorie intake over several months. I worked out exactly how many calories I was going to need per day and broke it down into fat, protein, and carbs. Now that Ive done three major ocean passages, I just sort of have a replica IWC Ingeniuer Chronograph AMG watch feel for it now. I know when Ive got enough food. What was the most difficult part of the crossing?On this last stage of the row? The approach to the equator was really difficult.
Coming out of Hawaii, I was pushing out pretty consistent days of 35 miles all really very nice and direct. As you approach the equator, the weather gets really weird. So the ITCZ is the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone, also known as the replica IWC Aquatimer Split Minute Chronograph watch Doldrums where the weather--anything can happen really. The wind becomes much more shifty, and you get storms, like these really intense rain showers, gusting winds--40, 50 miles an hour. If you look on my website, theres the RozTracker that shows what my actual course was.
