ERGO!

AWESOME workout this morning on the ergs with the novice & varsity women all together. We did 750 meter pieces with three athletes taking turns on each erg. I'm very excited for a number of reasons:

- Some really great performances today from both novice and varsity finding new limits and discovering their strength.

- We tested our new erging space, which will be tremendously enhanced by the addition of 10 more ergs this winter. This will let us run full-squad workouts in the first few weeks of the spring season.

- There was a great attitude and get-to-it-ness throughout. Good support from teammates to each other and a wonderful vibe that I hope we can continue to replicate every chance we get to work the squads together.

Plus, the men reported cold temperatures and fog this morning. . . so it was a good day to be inside.
