He had some transportation programs. The TARDIS wasn't working for some reason.

And Prof: I'm impressed with the grace that you displayed with regards to most of the other competitors at CRASH-Bs.

I'm awaiting with anticipation some good results at St. Catherine's. Just make sure you don't get stopped on the border, eh?

Results are listed nicely, by age group and division.

Videos are rather difficult to decipher, veteran, senior, master - quite confusing - no ages given for any of them. On top of that, the event numbers and race numbers don't match. It would be better to match the videos to the age groups, the same way as results. A link from results to the video for that particular event would be helpful.

It's interesting seeing all of the different rowers, especially Stephansen with his new world record. And the women's 55-59 hwt winner and new record holder Susan Hooten was quite impressive. She almost looks like a lightweight. Thanks for promptly posting the videos and results.

That was a really interesting race. looks like Susan came from behind in the last 500m. The second place finisher, Anna Bailey (GBR) is much larger and rowing at a much lower stroke rating but also looks like she has better technique. Susan Hooten is breaking her arms earlier, especially at the end, and starts to look just a bit sloppy. Anna has really good power transfer. It was a close race and Susan comes from behind with a great sprint to take. Susan could be a bit faster with a little better technique while Anna would be faster if she was lighter.
