Olympic Rowing

Olympic Rowing

My favorite Olympic sporting event is Rowing.
To be a Rower you need power, agility and balance. Rowing is a leisure activity, you can do it for fun or show your gifts to the world (If your amazingly good like Hamish Bond & Eric Murray)
If you want to enter in competitions you will need stamina and focus to beat your opposition. You will also need a rythm going continuosly from the time you start and the time you finish.

While Rowing, the athlet(s) sit backwards and and use the oars which are put in place by an oarlock. Athletes compete in a river, lake or ocean. This is New Zealands best sporting event.

  2. It's been fun watching the rowing, especially since NZ has done so well! Lots of people start rowing when they get to college - maybe it's something you could try.
