Men as fit as you, when your every day strength is gone, can draw on a mysterious reservoir of power far greater. Then it is you can reach for the stars. [/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name="Duvall Hecht" avatar="male" company="Olympic Rowing Gold Medalist" target="_self"] It is not pain, it is just lactic acid. [/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name="George Pocock" avatar="male" company="Rowing Coach, Boat Builder" target="_self"] From the first stroke all thoughts of the other crew must be blocked out. Your thoughts must be directed to you and your own boat, always positively, never negative. [/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name="Winston Churchill" avatar="male" company="British Politician" target="_self"] You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give. [/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name="Aristotle" avatar="male" company="Greek Philosopher" target="_self"] Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. [/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name="George Pocock" avatar="male" company="Rowing Coach, Boat Builder" target="_self"] Rowing a race is an art, not a frantic scramble. It must be rowed with Head Power as well as Muscle Power. [/fusion_testimonial][fusion_testimonial name="George Pocock" avatar="male" company="Rowing Coach, Boat Builder" target="_self"] That is the only way champions are made. That is the legacy rowing can leave you. Don't miss it. [/fusion_testimonial][/fusion_testimonials][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
