2004 Laker Erg Race
Sunday, March 14, 2004
1887 Boat House, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ
The
Carnegie Lake Rowing Association will hold its seventeenth annual erg
race at the boathouse on Sunday, March 14. The race distance will
be 2000 meters. All 2004 club members, including our 2004 novices,
are eligible and encouraged to participate in this friendly, in-house
competition. All entries are subject to fitness qualification
approval by the coaching staff; ask if you're unsure. This race
will provide all members with an opportunity to realize some winter
training goals, receive a great workout, race against friends and have a
good time.
Medals will be awarded to first-place finishers in the following men's
and women's individual events: Open, Lightweight, Masters Open, Masters
Lightweight and Coxswains. Lightweight for men is 165 lbs. or less; for
women itıs 135 lbs. or less. Masters will be divided by age categories:
30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+. There must be at least 3 entries per
event in order for a medal to be awarded.
A Team Relay Race is the highlight of the day! Depending on the number
of participants, teams of 4 or 5 are selected after all the individual
races are completed and are based on results of individual events. Each
member will row 500 meters and the best overall team time is awarded
medals. Team Relay Race participants must complete an individual race to
be eligible for a relay team. Every effort will be made to include all
qualified members and make the teams even.

We strongly encourage early registration in order to make the day go
smoothly, but walk-ons will be accepted on the day of the event. A
$6.00 entry fee will be assessed to each racerıs seat fee balance. Races
will begin at 1:00pm. Depending on the turnout within each category,
some may be combined, thus bumping up race times. If that is the case,
rest assured you will have ample time to warm up. It is a good idea
though to come early and cheer on your fellow teammates!
