Inspiration for 2016

Richard A. Kendall from Canada was our guest today. We wanted to impress him with our venue, so we - literally - had to jump the fence to get to the boats.

Richard is almost 86. It was a real inspiration to row with him.

We did 13K on flat water in a 4x. Olivia stroked, Richard K followed her, Felix in 2 and Richard D. steered us clear of the debris (there was much less than expected).

At 20 strokes per minutes in a set boat we made the Staempfli sing. Thank you Olivia for a perfect rhythm.

It was a great start into 2016. The ambition is to have many more rows like this over the next 12 months. And many more inspiring guest such as Richard.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

PS: Unfortunately, NK SpeedCoach once more gave up on us - here half o the outing it captured - we assume they are the second 2 pieces

Age average 60 - range 40 to 86 - 1:40 split at 28 strokes per minute. Great start into 2016
