Well tomorrow I’m off to Boston

It’s been a while since I posted anything so I’ll tell you what’s going on. Tomorrow I am leaving school 15 minutes early so I can catch my flight to Boston. This weekend is the weekend of the CRASH B’s which is a huge international erging competition. This is what I have been training for for the last 3 months. Two hours every day. Hundreds of high school kids who also row are going to show up. Some will row lightweight, like me, and some will row heavyweight. According to my 2k erg score I submitted (6:48.8) I was placed on the 20th erg (which means I am placed in the top 20 in the world!). I am hoping to break 6:45.0 at the event. The actual race is not till sunday, so I will have all of saturday to think and think about the 200 strokes I will take. Not to mention all of the college coaches that will be there watching. Hey, no pressure, right?
