23 Miles… but we finished!

It was a long haul, but we did it. The Marathon Row in Chattanooga is done. Although I still feel like I’m sitting in a boat riding the wakes, I am happy to say that everyone did a great job and we all pulled through relatively unscathed. Getting up at 5am to row for nearly 3.5 hours is the BEST way to spend a Saturday, right? Any takers for next year?? Pictures are posted to the group on flickr. Thanks to all that made the trip – I had a great time in spite of the fact that my fingers are still curled in the shape of an oar, and I can’t really stand up straight.
