Row hard... listen harder... try hardest.<br /><br />My friend and I were racing in a double in Head of the Fish and I decided that I was going to make inspirational poggies. I cut the poggies out of polarfleece and sewed tehm together... they came out looking interresting. Anyways I took a permenan...

I have to agree with Hal Morgan, go to the Dr. Ask if physical therapy would be helpful as well. Don't try to treat it yourself but ask a Dr and PT. Good luck.

16, 5'8" 2k: 7:37 pb but I should be able to get below a 7:20 but I didn't erg much because of my back. Nice job everybody. Crash-b's anyone, how'd ya do? I was sick and I started too fast (1:42 for the first 800) anyways I started to cough like crazy and though I was going to have to stop so I lear...

If you can get hold of some black foam insulation it's about an inch thick, it works pretty well. Also you could try wearing biking shorts when you row, if you get good ones with gel padding in the butt, it may work.<br /><br />good luck<br />

if it took you 30min that makes me feel better... (an embarassing 35min ) and that explains teh wait... that was COLD!! Also explains why there seemed to be no bouys along the island... I rowed rather zig-zagged there. When will they make a single scull with a seat for one of those "cheerleaders" no...

Thanks for the advice, (lI read earlier but haven't replied yet) I decided to have about 3 hrs before my race and had breakfast with 2 eggs about 5hrs previously. It worked out ok. I did one thing different and didn't get to row on Saturday (I didn't feel like erging either ) but I still had some ex...

thanks, I'll have to start using it at the boat club

I'm racing on sunday in head of the connectcuit (can't spell it) anyways I was just wondering what you all do to prep for the race in the few days before it interms of food, workouts ect.<br /><br />Any suggestions appriciated.<br />Thanks<br />~Sara~

I'm the odd one here, I row at 4pm-6pm or 7pm depending. It's straight from school to crew then home for a shower, food and then hours of homework. After that I get to enjoy my five hours of sleep Then it repeats.<br />~Sara~

just curious if anybody uses it and what ya'll think. I've used it once or twice but there was no battery int he moniter so it didn't tell me much. There's supposed to be a whole big topic on it but it says there's nothing so I figured I'd mention it here.<br /><br />~Sara~

Oops... sorry for that typo, I did mean the "gunwale" although at my club we usually spell it "gunnel" (in my defense) Anyways again sorry for that.<br />~Sara~

On the soft top make sure that the boat is resting withit's weight on teh gunnel not on the top. Also maybe make the rack a few inches down to the stern and take out the stern plug and other hatches so that if any moisture gets in (perhaps through the skeg alghough unlikely) there won't be a big pro...

I noticed on their site that the latest date they have is "World Championships 2003" so I'd say it may be out of date. The product may be a good idea but it does look rather promative although I can't be judgmental by looks. I'd say send the company a message asking about their product and see if th...

If your hands didn't overlap at hands away imagine how far apparth they'd be during the layback. That would present some problems so the idea is to get the best out of both worlds I think. I know it can present a problem with occasional snags of the skin on your right hand but hopefully that won't b...

Anybody in that area or know anyone in that area? My prayers and thoughts are out to all those who were effected by the devestation. Along the lines of disaster relief and money donations are there any erging competetions that go to organizations and have people sponser the rowers at all?
