Result: 4th place
Notes
7:00 - 10:00: We gained a lot of energy going through the Montlake Cut, as external motivation really helped our crew get fired up.
11:00 - 12:00: Our middle move was particularly effective -- we used a power 10 for quick + sharp catches to recommit and hit the halfway mark hard, and then a focus 10 for posture around the catch to recenter + stay focused. This helped our boat pick up more speed and keep the press up for the next half of the race.
Description: 5x5', piece #5, Jan 30 2026
Boat: U17 4+
Notes:
During this practice, our boat was able to improve on our rhythm and power every piece, with the work we did culminating in our last one, which felt the strongest and most clean.
I was proud of how I used my tone and name calls to motivate my rowers, and I felt like I was able to effectively call a build in press in the last minute without spiking the rate.
Description: 3x1500m, piece #2, Jan 23 2026
Boat: U17 4+
Notes:
This was a lineup we had not practiced before, so we got off to a rocky start during the first piece. However, we practiced quarter and half slide rowing to clean up our catch timing and it helped us a lot.
During this piece, we were a lot more consistent and rowed better together, and we carried the speed we gained into the last piece. I was proud of how I was able to motivate my rowers to walk on the u19 boat next to us despite starting down on them.
