Great day on the water in pretty rainy conditions - it promises to be rainy all week and right now we're in a very foggy bus on the way back to campus. Kids are very much asleep and are doing that continuous head roll...I guess they worked enough today.I'm working with the second girls boat and this morning we did a demonstration illustrating the importance of achieving a strong bodies over position and attempting to produce a strong push off the foot stretcher. We met with mixed success but made great progress from the beginning of practice through to the end.
Completed a great workout with Coach Tynan - the Filthy Fifty and put up a solid time of 21:12. My burpees were of very poor quality and I could have made the jumping pull-ups harder. However, not feeling in great shape makes it harder to do each exercise better. Ironic I think.
Our second practice was legitimately excellent with some balance work, abbreviated slide rowing, and more emphasis on bodies over to allow the boat to keep running. Could be a challenging night in the dorms because of the rainy conditions but we'll make the best of it.
