Cygnet Weekly Update

Hi All,

Great to see two learn to row eights out on Saturday morning and making good progress. Thanks to the Matt for coxing and boat sitters especially as it was only minutes after their 2k tests.

And well done to everyone who did their 2k test and to the many who set new personal bests in the process.

Looking ahead we are trying to set out target regattas for the 2nd half of the season. Responses to my online poll have been patchy so please take the short amount of time required to complete it asap please, we cant plan training without your input.

This week:

Tuesday: 7pm in the Shed Core Test with Tim

Wednesday Water outings for experienced steers

Thursday 7pm Squad erg 6 x 500 m at 2 k pace with 2mins rest

Learn to Row - as discussed on Saturday, we are considering moving the session to Sunday because of the availability of Alan and myself.

We want a good representation at these regattas, crews to be finalised in the next few days, but let the me know if you want to race in singles, doubles, pairs and in what category. Entries close soon!
