Friday Morning Racing


Friday Morning Racing from Sam Taylor on Vimeo.

Last practice before spring break; with a few folks already out we put together some Men's and Women's boats and went out for a racing practice. Did a bunch of 2' pieces with boats lined up next to each other, rates over 30, letting people get competitive and tear things up a bit.

Good fun, and now we're off until mid-day Tuesday. Over the years I've found this break is both excellent mentally (people get away from school and rowing for a few days) and physically, as everyone gets a chance to recover from the little aches and pains that build up by this time of the year. Personally I'm going to the coast for the weekend; looking forward to a couple days out of town to recharge, refocus, and get ready to roll into racing season.
