May Tri-Team Military/Veteran’s Rowing Challenge (Virtual)

May 1, 2020 - May 31, 2020

Who*:
ATHLETES WITHOUT LIMITS  – Veteran Leaders
CRI COMMUNITY ROWING INC. – Military Rowing

ROW NEW YORK – Veteran’s Rowing

What:
The Tri-Team Military/Veteran Challenge is a month-long competition between three Rowing Club’s Military/Veterans Rowing Programs — to see who can rack up as many active minutes as possible throughout May 2020!

Where:
The Interwebs/At home/The outdoors when social distancing is possible (cycling, runs, hikes, walks, rows, etc.)

When:
Workouts May 1-31, 2020

Why:
During the COVID-19 pandemic we are all trying our hardest to stay healthy, safe, and to flatten the curve by slowing the spread; which for many Veteran/Military Rowing programs means no team training. Let’s try to create a fun and healthy competition between our teams so that they can have a competitive outlet this spring and give you all a bit of motivation. We’re logging time instead of distances so that athletes who don’t have access to equipment or are under stay at home orders can be included.

How:
Teams will be given contact information so you can text or email your total TIME for that day to AWL’s Patrick Johnson (or you can send it every few days) with the type of workout (walk, run, skip, row, bike, treadmill, etc.) Weekly updates will be emailed to participants with final standings posted to the website in June.

Results:
