Rest Day 6/26/14: Get Outside! Go for a 45min Walk!

Rest Day:

Boston Summer Sunset over the Basin. Enjoy more of these on the Renegade Rowing Team! Tue/Wed nights 6:30-8pm

Get Outside! Go for a 45min Walk!

Life can get crazy and schedules can fill up fast, especially in the summer with work, parties, and vacations.  That doesn’t mean you should just give in to the pressure.  Sometimes taking 5 minutes to step outside and breath can be extremely refreshing.  Taking time for yourself is key to balance and recovery.  Find a river, go for a walk, enjoy the little things.

Share your experience or what you do to take time for yourself.

Rest Day 6/15/13: Happy Father’s Day!!! – Checkout the RRT!

I hope everyone can get out and enjoy the day with their Dad!  If possible, take him out rowing or show him how to erg.  Or perhaps just let him relax and enjoy the day.  Anyways, give him a hug and do something fun!

Love You Dad!

RRT Prepping for their epic end of term Renegade Rowing WOD on Wednesday.

RRT Run to CFB RRT Thor H 1k RRT LaunchingLast Wednesday we had the final practice of a six week term where the Renegade Rowing Team learned to scull in both singles and a quad.  We capped everything off by rowing 2k on the water in a quad, running 1 mile to CrossFit Boston, performing a 1k test on the Concept2 Ergometer, running 1 mile back to the boat, and rowing 2k on the water back to CRI.  All in all it took them 1:20.54 from launching to landing at CRI.  The fastest 1k by long time Renegade Rower, Thor H., was 3:35.  Here are some pictures and video of them as they attacked this epic Renegade Rowing WOD.  If you’d like to get in on some of the action toward the end of July when we start our next term please shoot me an email – pat@renegaderowing.com

Smooth Is Fast!  Row Strong!

Do you have what it takes to Race?

Have you ever seen an eight racing at top speed?  Are you interested in experiencing that for yourself?  Can you follow?  Can you push yourself?  Can you push others?  Do you have discipline? Will you work hard and find a way to push on even when pain and that little voice inside your head tells you to stop?

Then you should tryout for the Renegade Rowing Team.

We’ll be training twice a week starting mid July and racing in September.  More details are on their way.  Checkout the video below to see what you could be doing with your summer…

Comment if you’re ready!  Tryouts in July!

Here’s the RRT on Monday finding some rhythm in the Quad…
