I just checked the registration website for The Blackburn Challenge and lo and behold Rock N Row has 7 entires in 2009 Blackburn next Saturday July 18. Jack, Paul, Jay, Carmi, Thomas, Mary Ellen and Stephanie are committed and ready (figuratively) to row. Rob Slocum, Jays' buddy and Natl Masters champion, is also entered but it is as yet unclear whether he'll be wearing RnR colors. He'll be rowing Jay's dolphin in the sliding seat racing class looking for a win against serious competition.
Training for this race is difficult with this stormy weather. As I write it's blowing and cold and grey. I'm going to wimp again and get on my ERG for an indoor row. Weather is supposed to break today, sunny tomorrow.
Time to start praying for a changing weather pattern, we will really appreciate and be thankful for a sunny, CALM day next Saturday.
