Yeah. Better than me. But I'm not on the Ivy League row boat team

Lolz. There's literally a youtube video for every conceivable topic.

I'm want retest my 2k but it scares me. It takes me to a very dark place at about the 4 min mark.

One of the women on my daughter's team came in with her recruiting class from some schmancy boarding school and had rowed most of her life. She pulled a great score when they were freshman and never got close to it again because she couldn't handle the pressure of 2K testing. She'd throw up and all manner of shit. But she wanted in the 1v based on that one pull and bitched and moaned about it. She spent 4 years chasing that score trying to get into the big boat; seemed the harder she tried the more it eluded her. But I take it from that anecdote that testing isn't fun.MikeDamone said:I'm want retest my 2k but it scares me. It takes me to a very dark place at about the 4 min mark.

He really wasn't either. I suppose that's why he quit early. All jokes aside, I don't know a rower who is anything less than solid in the character department. It's like going to the academies: not for people who can't handle shit.MikeDamone said:Yeah. Better than me. But I'm not on the Ivy League row boat team

It's been said by @BearsWiin that row boat doesn't build character, rather that it reveals it. In this case it cannot be stated how charmin soft Fredo was for a 6'1" 185lb college freshman training 6 days a week. Penn ain't Worshington good, but they are still a Top 10 program typically.creepycoug said:

This is why I snicker every time I see one of Donnie Jr's "manly" pics hunting big game in Africa or posing with the AR with fruity looking "crusader" receiver. Just go play tennis at the club and drink martinis and we good, pod. -
I think that distinction has been lost. But your point still stands. To do this at all, much less well, takes a person who can withstand pain, maintain focus and work their ass off when people aren't watching.YellowSnow said:

People who are self-indulgent, impulsive, have delicate egos, need constant approval and positive reinforcement, dislike making sacrifices, and similar vices, really ought not to go near this sport.
There's a netflix special on "The Boys of '36" with fantastic footage of the Husky Crew training out on Lake Union, and in the beginning of the season there are all these people and they make your very point by pointing out that the team was always huge in the very beginning and then the herd thins out considerably once training begins. -
I’ve sort of moved on to the ski erg. It’s a bit more miserable than the C2.

Is 2k measured on a rowing machine? I'm sure it is but I'm not afraid of looking stoopid. What's an example of a good 2k time, ave time and maybe the shittyist time of the guy on a GOOD rowing team.
Gotta admit, as a Trump ball gargler and lover of all things Trump including his family - this poast is some pretty good smack. Actually made me look at Jr through a different lens. I just might be able to concede that he's a douche.
So, those who may know, did Jr only row his frosh year and quit? Was he there the whole time? -
Trump's (male) kids are total fags.

This is the time it takes to complete a 2000 meter rowing machine piece. Donnie JR only did freshman year at Penn. For his era anything under about 6:30 would have been okay and respectable. 7:02 would be a good time for a 45 year old man who trains 3 or 4 times a week. My dad pulled at 6:29 at age 40 but he was strong AF and trained hard.89ute said:Is 2k measured on a rowing machine? I'm sure it is but I'm not afraid of looking stoopid.

Take my word on it - he's soft AF. -
Fun fact: @89ute has been on my erg in the Yella Piss garage. It wasn't pretty.

Baron has a shot at being not a total fag. Different Slav tuff DNA in thur somewhere.Pitchfork51 said:Trump's (male) kids are total fags.
But still kinda faggy.

The Trump daughters got the good stuff. All of it. The girls could eat their siblings if they wanted to. I’m pretty sure that the Maples sibling kicked serious ass at Penn. I believe Ivanka more than held her own.89ute said:Is 2k measured on a rowing machine? I'm sure it is but I'm not afraid of looking stoopid.

It depends on your size too. They have weight classes lightweight and heavy weight. Tall guys tends to do better89ute said:Is 2k measured on a rowing machine?

I’m at about 7:30. I have no rowing background and never tried until my late 40s. Yella says my time is ok for my age. -

It’s an admirable endeavor for sure. I’m pretty sure I’d be on team puke if I went through a real workout.

I did a 1K in 5 minutes on the hotel in Doha's row machine and almost died.

Awkward movement, slippery seat, trying to pull the thingy while slipping backward, plus my shirttail kept getting caught in the slidey seat. Kinda reminded me of swimming, trying to move through the water and breathe at the same time. it wasn't pretty.YellowSnow said:Fun fact: @89ute has been on my erg in the Yella Piss garage.

In 2023 you can join me while we do 3 fast laps around Green Lake, my way on foot.

9.3 miles ? Fuck that. I’ll do one lap with you and then go meet Pup at the Little Red Hen for some cold Bud Heavy89ute said:

I row a drift boat.

Sure. Bring your motor to the Sol Duc or the Calawah.PurpleThrobber said:

Someone will fish your carcass out of the river. Or the crawdads and seagulls will take care of it. And the local meth heads will wind up with the motor.
Also, this is a rowing thread.

No. I'm about as white as you can get and my locks have not flowed in decades.YellowSnow said:

But I did figure out how to log back in to HH and I don't email Derek whining all the time, so there's that. -

While you might survive the trip to the river - your sled trailer won't. You park that in Forks and you'll come back to a pile of scrap metal where your trailer used to be. They aren't fans of jet sleds in Forks.PurpleThrobber said:
