Master's Rowers to Compete at Olympic Trials!!
There are two master's rowers who have commited to training for the olympic pair after they won an open event at last year's Canadian Henley regatta. You can see random videos of their journey at You Tube: search "unlikely pair" and see for yourselves. The stroke is Stephen Keisling (50) and his pair partner Andy Baxter (41).
There is hope for us all!

This is a chance to pull quality pieces at a faster pace than your 2k pace. We are looking to help elevate the heart rate beyond what is reasonable for a 2K piece but not for a 750m piece. We are pushing the body to experience and hold a blistering pace and better our pain threshold.
