Today was one of those 'Proud Nana and Poppa' moments.. We travelled down to Lake Karapiro ( Cambridge NZ) to see our eldest Grand daughter row in her first compeditive single rowing race .. 2 klms down the lake .. she had a little glitch half way through the race when she lost her stroke, but she did not let that faze her and she fought back and got 4th place and so has qualified in a B final tomorrow.. You can see in this shot how determined she was and it was at about this point that she caught up to and past her fellow competitor.. She also raced in a double and got 2nd in a good time and quad's and place 4th..
Big night sleep and back on the water tomorrow..
This is a terrific shot showing the what a huge effort she is putting into her sport. Well done on all those placings - and especially the single scull. Fav
