Henley Workout #1

Got out on the water early this morning for a distance row looking at making some exaggerated changes and it was reasonably good after a four day layoff. Sometimes it's easy to forget how much time away from the boat can really change your rhythm and sensitivity to the balance. We finished with a hard post-row that should jump start some fitness gains.

At 12:30 PM today there is a celebratory lunch for the team at Mather Hall amidst the backdrop of reunions - it should be great to hear from the President of the College as well as be recognized by many of the faculty, staff, and alumni.

We'll pick up the shells at about 2:30 PM from Yale and be back to rowing our own eights and blades. We'll do a little speed work this afternoon along with tech work #1.

Also - Trinity Women's Rowing will be featured on the front cover of the Trinity Day Planner for the 2008-2009 - nothing wrong with a little free publicity!

Bonus question: Can anybody identify this picture?
