Henley Day 1

Arrived at Heathrow and somehow met up with Dave Werner, James Higgins, and Joe Fallon for a quick taxi ride to Henley-on-Thames. Met our wonderful hosts, the Brassey family on St. Andrews Road and then picked up our shell at the course...we were well prepared for the shell.

A quick rig, check of the internal components, and the aid of Colin Farrell to replace one of our late-arriving members we got on the course for a quick two laps. Felt amazing to be back on the water...though everyone felt a little crunchy and consequently the rowing was short and choppy. Went to dinner at the Three Horseshoes and felt really blessed to be in the UK as a competitor again. Special thanks to Nigel the proprietor of the Three Horseshoes.
