Message #111 of 427 |

All,

Is there any kind of standard swim test for rowing? We make our juniors do one every year, which consists of 2 laps of a swimming pool and treading water (or floating at least) for 5 minutes. Does this seem reasonable to people?

Thanks,

John Bartucz

Rochester Rowing Club of Minnesota

p.s. 43 degrees today in Rochester – anyone want to come to Minnesota for spring training?
