A Good Erg Time for A Novice Women's Rowing?

Question

I did an 8:08 for a 2000 m. race and am a women's novice/freshman, highschool rower. Is this good?

Answer 1

Yeah, 8:08 is really good. You should be sub 8:00 soon. When I was a freshman i was 8:11, then as a somphmore went to 7:59, and now I'm at 7:32 as a Junior (hoping to PR soon...). Just keep erging, just keep erging... and your score will go down. but you're pretty awesome for a freshman right now.

And that other guest- women's rowing is certainly not a joke! I'd bet five bucks that a woman rower could kick your butt anyday, and that you must have gotten beaten baddddd on the erg.

Answer 2

bullshit. on the last call. womens rowing is a joke anyways.
