7000m easy

33:37.3
2:24.0 ave /500m
20 s/m
Time     Meter    Split      s/m
9:26.0 2000 2:21.5 21
9:36.0 4000 2:24.0 20
9:42.7 6000 2:25.6 20
4:52.5 7000 2:26.2 21

I aimed for a stroke rate of 22 s/m, but every 1000 meters I took 10-20 strokes at 16 or below. While this seems really slow, it really cuts out a big chunk of the first 500m of a new 1000m and I feel really smooth when I bring the rate back up to 22 or 24 after those 10 or 20 strokes.
