Who is watching? Women's race at 2:15, men's race at 3:15
Go light blues Wink

Weather is set for light winds but rather wet.

disclaimer: normally I have zero interest in boat racing.

I wish they wouldn't show heart rates. Just makes me worry!

How did they keep hold of their oars?

OP posts:
CassandraCross · 07/04/2019 15:15

Yep, oars clashed.

CutSomeRug · 07/04/2019 15:15

They are so young and fit, they are likely to be able to tolerate heart rates can be high for a short bursts.
