Tuesday Morning Fitness

Tuesday Morning Fitness - Planning on doing some sprints in polo boats and then endurance.

Note - starts at 8am so we can all have a lie in.

This is a great way to relax during exam periods, take whatever boat you are comfortable in - we will paddle up to Prebends Bridge and possibly play some games once we're there.

You should be comfortable paddling that distance (and back) at a leisurely pace. Meet at the boathouse at 4:30, we should be off the water by about 6:30.

Note: Different time this week

Post AMV Polo

Is it river water or did I just have a little cry?

Join me and Noah after our AMV exam for some polo, because who needs to be able to solve IN/IN PDEs when you can throw a ball. Everyone welcome as long as your comfortable in a polo boat :)

Sunday Evening Paddle

Thursday Morning Fitness

---**NOTE: The river levels have the potential to get a lil *spicy* this time of year so the session may be called off last minute **----

We take polo boats and spraydecks for these sessions. These are tippier than river boats and if you aren't comfortable in one then come on Wednesday instead. Any questions ask Josh.

Slightly later than normal this week, if you would prefer it to be earlier let Madeline/Josh know.

Meet at the boathouse at 8am.

THE WEDNESDAY WARRIORS RETURN AT MC 13:30-15:00

The usual Wednesday session! Open to beginners and is simply a really chill couple hours on the River Wear. If you want to get into kayaking or simply have a fun afternoon on the river this is probably the session for you!

Please bring a fleece to wear on the water, spare shoes, plenty of spare clothes and a towel. It is best not to wear jeans on the water since these shrink when wet.

See you there!
