I am writing from our room in the athlete village. It is 8:30pm here and nearly time for bed. Racing commenced today with heats for us and all of the NZL crews. It was good to get our first race out of the way, a tail cross-wind proved tricky racing conditions but we felt as if we handled them well and made the most of it. There is certainly some tough competition here at World University Rowing Champs but we were happy with our race and we are excited to race for a spot in the A final tomorrow against Ukraine, Poland, Ireland and Norway.
Apart from our race we had a pretty uneventful day. We managed to get a lot of study done and went for a nice stroll as a crew this afternoon. Always a good relaxing wind down from racing.
The other crews also did well. Laura Tester (LW1x) has qualified for the A final and the other crews will racing for spots in their respective A finals tomorrow in Semi's and Repechages.
Live results can be found on the World Rowing Website :)
