There will be a 20 minutes to warm up. We recommend something along the lines of:
10 minutes to low intensity urging at R18-20
3-4 minutes of rowing with 3-4 20 stroke bursts focussing on your pace and start.
1-2 minutes of stretching and sipping water
3-4 minutes of low intensity erging 
Set up machine, 2000m and splits set to 500m splits.

Go!

You should have a plan, with split and technical focusses for at least every 500m. The fly and die method is not a plan. :)
We are looking for athletes to be faster than 7:45 for Open Weights and faster than 8:00 for Lightweights. 

Cost
The cost will be £85. If this is a reason you are unable to participate please email me.
It includes:
Transport to and from Ely.
Kingston Regatta (at least 2 races each at a cost of £14 per seat)
A Dev Squad T-shirt
Use of CUW equipment and anything we need to hire for the 4 weeks.
Access/Use of Rowe.rs (our online training programme and data collection tool)
Some of the best coaching around. ;)

Week 4
This week is all in Cambridge.
You will need to organise with your college or club access to a single scull. 

Frequently Asked Questions
Can i do part of the 4 weeks? Not ideal and will therefore be discussed on a case by case basis.
I’m a post grad and have a 9am start, can i trial? Absolutely. We train early to maximise people’s ability to make 9am. While we will use Minibuses most days if necessary we can use the train to ensure you get back on time.


Any issues or questions please email and i will get back to you ASAP.

Regards

Paddy
