Having had precisely zero outings as a crew we opted for a fairly gentlemanly row. We didn't really rate above 30 and no one pulled very hard so we went rather slowly. However, we achieved our main aim which was to win the 2nd VIIIs category.
Hopefully, most of this crew will be back in serious training in the Mays crews, where we should build on these highly successful results.

Not a bad row, but not great either. It never felt that powerful and we failed to achieve the rhythm and length we would have liked to.
Still...as 'Mac' once said: "Job done"

Our race number was 2^(2^3). I find this pleasing.
