Hi guys,
I was wondering how much a headwind would take off of a 3K race compared to the previous year which had a tailwind. The wind wasn't too strong but was still substantial. Not sure how strong the tail was. I was rowing in a 4+ and am trying to compare with another 4+ last year.
Thanks

Re: Headwind vs Tailwind
Depending on the wind direction, it can be 10% or more.
