Well, In the end I am pleased, bronze in Mu172x and ranked 7th in SB1x… and learned some really good lessons.

I have my first uni exam today, and I frankly cant wait for it to finish, its dragged on way too long.

52 weeks left until nationals, bout 70 till junior worlds, training starts back tomorrow*!!

I am actually looking forward to the winter season

Cheers,

Luke

*well actually we are doing an erg this morning, but on-water training….the good stuff….. starts back tomorrow!

Time passes soooooooo slowly before anything important.
Its hard when there is nothing left to do but just let it happen…
I have two important races today, two tomorrow.

Its official, rowing is mans greatest invention, he has discovered a way to push himself to the limits and put himself through the most unimaginable pain.

Yesterday I had the semi-finals of my under 17 single scull and I was out in front for the first 1700m (results) until I well and truly hit the wall, with only enough strength left to tap it along to the finish …

after winning gold, rob drury wanted a poser picture 

under 19 crew fought hard for gold after being kirans and my fourth race of the day, both of us knackered, we picked up silver to the sydney university crew 

comparison between under 17 crew (gold, luke, matt, tom, gordo) and under 19 crew (silver, caydern, luke, adam, kiran…. after all jumping in the water)
