Frost & Flow: Rowing for Recovery

About This Event

EDCF family, please join us on Saturday, December 7th for our charity event benefitting The Magdalen House, a nonprofit organization helping individuals with alcoholism achieve sobriety and sustain recovery from alcoholism.

We will be challenging our members and friends to complete as many meters as possible during a 12 hour window. All of our machines (rowers, bikes and ski erg) are available during this time to jump in and help the cause.

Go for the distance alone or as a team! Any friends or family can join you for this event. 

There are several ways to contribute to the total distance rowed:

  1. Full marathon (42,195m or 26.3 miles)
  2. 10K, 5K, 2K presets built into the machines
  3. Or commit to a set amount of time to see how much you can complete!

Still sound like a long way? Think about it like this… with a team of 5, you would only need to row a little over 8000m each. Split it up into 1000m turns (approximately 4-6 minutes) and then rest while your teammates do their part before you jump back in. So you row for 5 minutes, rest for 20+ minutes, and repeat- anyone can do that!

We will have a Commitment Board posted in the gym where you and/or your team can choose your distances/times. Our machines will be first come, first serve, so feel free to drop in any time and get to work!
