Rowing Session Sunday 5 May



Rowing Session Sunday 5 May

Notes
I decided we should start rowing courses to be accurate about distance and time and also to practice navigation. This is better than random rowing all over the place and helps us get familiar with the marks, the turns and all the things we need to think about when racing the same marks. What is interesting is to see the distance, time and average pace from the session. We felt after 1.5 hours we had done 15k. The actual truth is sobering!

Summary
Distance 13207 Time(Mins) 90 Meters Per Min 146 Meters Per Sec 2.45 500m Splits 03:24

Detail
This is the course and the bearings. Remember you face backwards on a rowing boat!
