Winter Weather!!

sstaniforth — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 18:21:37 +0000

Over the last few weeks the club has had to cancel some outings and training sessions due to the bad weather conditions. We do our very best to make sure that everyone is contacted so that they do not come down unnecessarily.

I am glad that training has started again and was pleased to see people starting to come down again last week!!

Next race of the season will be the Worcester Head of the River on the 20th February – so all crews that are hoping to take part need to be training hard for the 6000m course!

Head Season!!

Winter training is certainly under way!! Second lot of ergo 2k test were last week for the women, with the men doing their’s this week (good luck all!) Although Adam has already done his at the British Indoor Rowing Championship earlier today. He came 20th in the Open Men’s category with an impressive time. Well done Adam!!

The Veterans Men eights crew started the winter head season off with an impressive win at Bristol Head. Well done all that took part!!

Wet and windy weather didn’t dampen the spirits at the Northwich Head. We had Mike taking part in his single, Sue and I in the double and the Senior Men’s 4 entered. All did very well with the first heads race of the season for most. Sue and I will never forget waiting an hour and 20 minutes at the top of the river in the wind and the rain for our division to start. We were happy to be finally racing down the course just so we could get dry! But were pleased with a second for our first head race in the double!!

That’s all for now – hope there is lots more racing over the winter!

Winter Training 2009-10

Hey all – yes it’s that time of year again!

Darkness has descended upon us as we try to complete our last few evening outings.

Which means – yes WINTER TRAINING is soon to begin!

From next week there will no longer be evening outings on the river – instead we swap them for the gym and running!

For full winter training nights see posters around the club house and bar!

CIRCUITS – from Wednesday 7th October!

Not to be forgotten is the WEDNESDAY night circuit training which has changed this year due to increased numbers. Junior circuits from 6pm-7pm. Senior circuits from 7pm-8pm. All members welcome – will be lovely to see as many as possible there!!

Thanks,

Sarah Staniforth, Women’s Vice Captain
