HREP Info

Here are the specifics for HREP.  The official website is http://www.hrrc.net/erg/.

  1. Location is Catholic High School (4552 Princess Anne Rd); in the gym which is on the left side of the school as you drive in.
  2. The racing schedule (with your exact time to compete) will be added soon.
  3. The final schedule will be posted at the event. You are responsible for your own race.  Watch the clock, warmup, and prepare your body on time.
  4. All students attending need to arrive by 0800, except the U19 boys, who I will see there at 0730. There’s no need to check in at the event.
  5. Plan to stay the whole time (it’s a team event). The last team race is perhaps 1230, so 1245 pickup time should work. If you must leave early, talk to a coach first.
  6. There is no racing uniform.
  7. Plan for your own food and beverages. You need to be hydrated and fed to race well (start now).
  8. There is no great place to put your stuff. Don’t bring a bunch of things with you.  R3 is not responsible if you lose your i-Whatever.
  9. There’s room to do homework. Bringing some is a great idea.
  10. The last events of the day are team races (1000m). They are free.  If you can get 4 people together to race, I’ll enter you (only people doing the erg pull can do the team event).  I make the entries on race day.  Once you’re in, there’s no backing out after the 2k.  You’d have to find someone to take your seat.
  11. Those of you who owe me regatta fees, Saturday morning is fine but before is preferred.
  12. Youth (elementary and middle school) competitor entries can be made the morning of the race (by you, early, at the regatta desk).
