This is my oar. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My oar is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my oar is useless. Without my oar, I am useless. I must row my oar true. I must row harder than my enemy, who is trying to walk on…

and what is rowing when you aren't in love with your team ??

sarahslifegoeson asked: it's okay, i feel like anyone who has ever rowed is obsessed. it's something that needs to be shared !
