Training Day Report Thursday


Thursday

In the morning I went in a skiff again, this was difficult but rewarding. I felt proud of my balance in the boat. On Friday I would travel to Holland for the weekend and because of that I decided to come again at night. When I arrived I noticed the water was a bit more rough but dave decided it was good enough for rowing. While I was on the water the wind picked up and they waves became huge. Dave came to me in the motor boat and told me to turn around and go back. This was hard and took me in total 25 minutes while usually it would take 7 minutes. Because of the waves I kept losing balance and getting my oar stuck in the water. it was a scary experience for me being in that water in a skiff but I survived. When I finally got out I saw my boat was filled with water and I was completely wet. I put my stuff away and joined the other kids, they were also sent back, with a erg work out lead by a man who has won the welt meistershaft in the 90s. This was a hard work out but I feel like It wasn't a waste of time.
