Autumn Head W1

W1 entered Autumn head after only a few outings togther as a crew, and without really having any idea of how we stood in relation to the other crews on the river. The long course enabled us to really start working together as a crew, and the row felt powerful and controlled. We managed to push off Girton, and even held off a very strong Lea RC crew who were bearing down on us in the closing stages. Despite a powerful and together row we finished eighth out of nine crews in the Women's First division. With more time in the gym and on the water we are optimistic that we will be able to compete with the top boats by Fairbairns.
