Hey,

I've been looking all over the internet for an answer but can't find one.

I would be interested in competing in 500m indoor row as i did my first row yesterday with no training and got 122.1 which i thought wasn't bad.

Question - is this possible as all ive seen is 2000m rows and what would the best cateogory to enter?

I'm 92kg, 6ft male aged 27. (not sure what criteria is used for categories).

Thanks in advance
