Also, an excellent practice today with a good mixture of technical and physical rowing (they should always be mixed in my mind...) - I think I can continue to do an even better job of defining the precise elements of the stroke cycle that will unlock some of the "easy speed" that we haven't yet found. The physicality of our rowers makes it a little bit more challenging to find a collective impulse because both the negative and positive aspects of each rower's contribution to boat speed is magnified. What a wonderful puzzle...

Amazing!
