Race Training and Endurance
For anyone who wishes to learn more about rowing, gain fitness, and be part of a team
— Race Training —
The Race Training program is for anyone who is an active Adult Community Rower who wishes to learn more about rowing, gain fitness, and be part of a team. You do not need to be fit or have a lot of rowing experience to join. As this is primarily a recreational program, the most important goals are inclusion, fun, camaraderie, and education.
There will also be opportunities for those who wish to participate in a more competitive and challenging race boat. There is a growing traditional boat rowing and racing community across New England and beyond. This is a chance to travel to new locations to meet and compete with others in the rowing world.
Ben Booth will coach the race training rows. In every session, participants will be taught how to refine their technique, come together as a crew, and discover the safe and fun challenges of gaining the skill and strength to make the boat move faster! It is understood that there will be a wide range of interest, from those who want to race seriously, to a more casual recreational racer, to those who do not want to race at all and simply want to learn more about rowing and fitness on the water.
