Okay Crews, here is the "tentative" (yet to be approved by the board) winter training plan (with some small details up in the air).
Location: Briggs Community YMCA
We will be making plans and taking suggestions to make sure EVERYONE can find a mode of transportation to practice.
Oly H.S. There is a city bus (#68) or a bike lane directly from the HS to the Y.
Capitol: Talk to each other about carpooling. This is still in the works, if you have specific questions ask your coach.
Time: 3:30 - 5:30
Dates: Dec 1 - Feb 6 or 13 (depending on Tough Love)
Two week holiday break December 20th - January 4th
Novice Boys: Three days a week; Monday-Wednesday-Friday. Focusing on cross-training and erg times. Christina will post more details.
Novice and Varsity Girls: Four days a week, Monday-Wednesday-Thursday-Friday
(or some combination. This is flexible based on rowers schedules. Also, one day a week will be optional if you need to work on homework and such)
Girls will be working on an endurance strength training circuit along with focusing on distance ergs. The girls will also be attending Tough-Love indoor rowing regatta in mid-February. All of the girls will be together with Liz.
Varsity Boys: Four day a week,Monday-Wednesday-Thursday-Friday
(or some combination. This is flexible based on rowers schedules.)
The V. boys will be working on endurance with cross-training. They will also be doing a strength building circuit. More details from P.J. to come.
All- Crews!
We are planning 1-2 winter Millersylvania mud-puddle madness work-outs. These will be on a Saturday morning (not to early) at Millersylvania State Park, south of Olympia. Details to follow. Will be great fun!! These will be orginized "regatta style"
Your registration fee will include a three month full-membership to South Sound YMCA (Both Briggs and the Downtown branch).
Okay, so basic idea and overview with much more detail to be included with the registration forms which will be posted once the board approves our grand plan. If you have any questions feel free to ask your respective coaches.
PLEASE LET US KNOW ASAP IF YOU ARE PLANNING OR CONSIDERING DOING WINTER CONDITIONING!! REPLY TO THIS POST WITH YES/NO.
Have a great break team!!

I am planning on doing winter training. However, I am already a member of the Y and I feel that I can get a better workout and improve my strength and endurance better if I work out by myself (which I am currently doing). So, I may only want to come 2 or 3 days a week. Would that be ok?

Maura,
Why don't you wait until the first week or so to decide. Come and find out what we will be doing and if you feel like you would get a better work out on your own time, I'm fine with that.

How many potential participants already have a YMCA membership? (We have a family membership). Will the fees be adjusted accordingly for those who don't "need" to purchase the 3 month membership?
Thanks ... Mike Ruth
YES! If you already have a South Sound YMCA membership you do not need another one. The registration price will be adjusted, though the how of it will be up to the board and parent reps. There will be more information on the registration forms.
Thanks!
The order for the sweats has come in and people can start coming over and getting the sweats. Call me at 360-701-5627 and we can work something out.
Thank you
Mitch
