Last month saw us float two boats into the rankings for the September Cross Team Challenge with three partially filled boats due to the lack of either female or lightweight rowers. We had a great ETT presence on the leader board and for future CTC's we now need to co-ordinate the combination of rowers to ensure we float more boats into the points rankings this month.
Well done to those who took part, here are the final standings for the1k session:

Sorry team, I did not check the CTC mucj for September as I did not want to pull something after been on holiday for 2 weeks. If I had known we were lacking some lightweights, I would have rowed a easy1K, just to get us some more points. I will definitely put in the effort for October CTC. As for the Fall Challenge, a little behind my target of 300 k for the challenge, however I am determined to break 300 k in prep for the Holiday Challenge. Keep on erging.

ReplyDeleteCaroline, I had erroneously left off my club on my Challenge Series profile, I have now amended this. I hadn't realised until I saw my name was missing from the list you produced!
ReplyDeleteSo that you don't need to look it up my metres were 1075, which gave me 83.92 in the 50 -59 male section
As for lightweights, I tried to get my step son to have a go just to float another boat, but to no avail! The rest of my family do not share my enthusiasm for rowing unfortunately.
Hi Phil,
ReplyDeleteI am the same with family and friends now - if I even mention a lack of boats floated in the CTC they just start mumbling, singing loudly or just walking off as if they haven't heard anything....
