I thought I’d put up a playlist of the tunes I’m jamming out to during warm-ups and the down times between events. All tunes are available on iTunes and from other online music retailers. Enjoy!

The draw came up tonight! Many of the US crews face other US crews in their heats tomorrow, which is a bit of a tough way to start, but should make for some great racing. Most of the small boats or events with many entries have heats tomorrow morning; the two women’s pairs will face some solid competition in each of their heats. My event isn’t till the afternoon, so I’ll be sleeping in and watching the morning races via the web. World Rowing has a great live race tracker and viewer program, so it will almost be the same as watching live…almost!

The weather is getting warmer and sunnier each day, and tomorrow looks like it’ll be a beautiful day for a race! We drew Germany, China and Poland for our heat—very solid competition. Can’t wait to race tomorrow! My event will be at 1:42pm Lucerne time (7:42am Eastern DT), and you can check it out here: http://www.worldrowing.com/index.php?pageid=116.

Go USA!
