Victory in the double
13 05 2007For the first time this season I managed to slip over the finishline in a 2km race in front of Lassi. I was however sitting in the same boat with him… ![]()
We doubled our training milage during our warmup and actually noticed that with every stroke it sort started feeling more and more like we were actually rowing the same boat. Our start was actually pretty good, and the other boats did not take a lenght on us we sort of counted on. Lassi stroked a steady 35,5 rate all the way in. For me it really felt like a really tough race, but it was nice to do a personal best time in the double 6:26 and the conditions were not fast. A light half tail wind. Good fun. Peter and Pontus did a good job and held on pretty wel. About 12 seconds behind.
Result of all the races can be found here.
In total Stockholms Rowing Club came out as the best club! The girls won the eight!, the four and the novice four did a cool race again! Tobbe and Janne kicked but in the pair and gave the twin towers from Falkenberg, Henke&Macke, a run for their money. David did a pb in the single, 14 seconds faster than his time trail in Czech.
