For everyone who is interested in participating in a couple of rowing events this winter, there will be 3 additional rowing WODs posted on one of the whiteboards at the Fort every week. Complete 2 or 3 of these WODs each week based on how you're feeling. I don't want anyone to run themselves into the ground with this though so please pay attention to your recovery and listen to your body.
I'll leave it up to each of you to decide when you are going to get these WODs in (i.e. before/after class). However, I think we would all enjoy it more if we could coordinate some specific times. I know Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:00pm would work for the guys being there is a ladies class going on at that time, but I am open to other ideas as well. Saturdays or Sundays are another opportunity for us to all row together. Please post your thoughts to the comments.
From September 15th - October 15th, Concept2 is hosting an online rowing challenge. CrossFit Fire has a team in the challenge and I invite ALL of our members to join in. All you have to do is register with Concept2 and then log all of the rowing that you complete between the dates above. There will be individual prizes as well as team prizes.
Head on over to the Concept2 website and register for your own online logbook. Once you are registered, you will be able to join the CrossFit Fire team and participate in the challenge.

Boyd never commented because he is a lurker. I will be sure to let him know next time I see him at the Fort.

Well, as my rowing could use some work, I might just try and tuck one or two into a week and see how it goes.
