I heard about rowing at school, although I could not attend the meeting because I had a schedule conflict.  I am very active physically as a member of the Lourdes Cross Country, Swimming, and Lacrosse teams and I also lift weights regularly.  I am interested in trying rowing because the sport seems like it will be physically demanding and a fun new challenge.

     “In the world of sports, there are athletes and there are rowers. Athletes work hard to reach their limit. The rower does not think of limits, only the race.”

I try to come to practice with an open mind and hope to not only improve others but grow and learn myself.
