Kind of dark (lights are turned out?), but I can see the big clock ticking away...6:55.<br />Joan

Hi Xeno,<br /><br />Just want to thank you again for posting your plan. It was a great guide leading up to the Beach Sprints. I've also been working on improving my technique based on your suggestions, and I think it's been beneficial (although I still fall back into bad habits sometimes!) If you ca...

FYI...<br />The results from the Beach Sprints, held in Long Beach, California, on Saturday, February 4, 2006, are now online at row2k.com. <br /><br />The direct link to the results is:<br /><a href='http://www.row2k.com/results/resultspage.cfm?UID=3769142&cat=2' target='_blank'>http://www.row2k.co...

BTW...Bob isn't returning home until tomorrow...I don't know if he'll get online before that to read and post.<br />JVB<br />

Thanks for asking, John. I'm sorry I didn't bring results home with me, but I do know that three other Boston qualifiers from this event were in those age groups. Steve Krum (6:21.4) 50-54H; Henry Baker (6:49.1) 55-59L; and moi. <br />Warren Anderson (5:58.3) 19-29H met the Boston qualifying time, a...

At today's Beach Sprints in Long Beach, California, Bob Spenger broke his 2K world record for male lightweights 80-84, with a time of 7:54.9. (His previous WR was 8:05.6.) Bob's time is faster than the 80-84 MH record, and he is also the first 80 year old to break 8:00! <br />Congratulations, Bob!<b...

Thanks for the inquiries about the event.<br /><br />The races are all 2K. It's not a giant event. There are around 300 competitors in juniors, collegiate, open, masters, and veterans' events, spread throughout most of the day. The time schedule is not available, yet, but the veterans and masters ra...

Thanks, Xeno. This is a great guide. It will be particularly helpful for those who haven't entered an erg race before. (The Beach Sprints will be my younger sister's first...if she follows through... )<br /><br />For those interested, links to the Long Beach 2K race ("Beach Sprints"): <br /><br />En...

Until EIRC attracts a larger crowd....I vote to keep it in Boston....for the origins of the event, the organizing committee, the great city....Plus, (a little selfish, here) I enjoy being in cold weather a few days of the year. (I get to wear a hat and gloves!) <br /><br />Joan
