Speed Investigation

Another steamy morning and a good long row - this morning we did a series of 2' pieces with switching to continue our pursuit of speed and a rise in the standard of rowing in the program. In between sets the team took a quick swim and I think they really needed it. Following that, we did a series of steady state blocks and an aggressive post row to end the days activities. We'll be back at it tomorrow morning at 7 AM to do some side-by-side racing. After examining the draw, it appears as if both crews will have a very challenging time making it to Sunday and we'll have to pull out all the stops to have our best chance of success.

Also, our order of jump ropes arrived (personalized in our school colors and labeled with our mascot and sport name) courtesy of The Jump Rope Store. Check them out at www.jumpropestore.com
