New features on www.ironoarsman.com

Hello Rowers
We have a new feature on our website!
At Ironoarsman.com you can now follow any schedule and workout changes from the comfort of your own computer. Thanks to GOOGLE calendar we have now an interactive platform for the instructors at the Iron Oarsman. So if there is a special event/row any of the instructors can add it and the changes appear on the Iron Oarsman website. This is especially great if you register with the calendar and get email alerts.
In addition I added a new feature to the first page of our website: A BLOG! I figured thanks to John B. from the Iron Oarsman that I needed to keep the content flowing freshly on our website. For some more time I will be publishing on this site, yet I will gradually move all the information over to www.ironoarsman.com
All the best, and happy holidays.

Rob Waddell won the first New Zealand Selection Regatta after 7 years of break

Rob Waddell won his first 2K at the New Zealand selection regatta. The chips are not down yet as to who goes to the Olympics in the men’s single scull. Rob’s goal is to go to the Olympics and get a medal. Well, he is on the right track. He is a rowing god/monster. Thank you to his wife Sonia to be putting up with Rob and his rowing passion. I wish the whole family all the best. GO ROB, you are a beast, a friendly beast!

Check out a bunch of rowing clips I posted on youtube. Look for "ironoarsman" on youtube.
All the best,

Thank you for your compliments!

Hi Xeno...I just received my DVD's today and they are great!! You did a really good job on them. Your instructions are clear and VERY helpful. As well, just trying to keep up to you (and I did, all through DVD 1 except I was a couple of strokes off for two of the 15 sec. pieces) kept me motivated and made my 20 K today feel like it took no time at all. Great job...and thanks. I feel stronger already. Actually, I feel like I used to after running 300m intervals when I ran track....worn out but strong as hell (We used to call it feeling like and "ANIMALE")...GREAT FEELING!!! Thanks again, Annie

Dear Xeno: I went 6:43.3 in Saturday's 2K. Last month, I went 6:51.1. Those are the two best scores that I've had since college . . . in 1995. I can't thank you enough. After my last spinal fusion, I said that I would be happy just to row again. But now, I want to break my college PR of 6:31.3. Because I'm a 36-year-old lightweight, I would have finished in the top 10 at last year's CRASH-B with my 2K this month. And it's just October now.

I owe you a tremendous debt of gratitude for your coaching and your DVDs. You've very much enriched my life! Thank you, Xeno. I can't wait for November's schedule.

Best,
Jamie
