You Know You're a Rower When...
All the things that makes crew the most unique sport.

bored rowers since 9-18-2011

…you get mad when non-rowers complain about lack of sleep.

…you can put on your spandex and walk out the door at the crack of dawn without opening your eyes.

…you only get about 4 hours of sleep but you’re energetic every practice.

..you only get six hours of sleep, yet are more awake in the morning than all your non-rower friends.

…you text your friends at 6 a.m. and wonder why they’re not up yet.

…you’ll miss out on sleeping in to go to a regatta you’re not even rowing in, but you won’t miss out practice for anything.

…as priorities, crew comes before sleep and school, and the only reason food comes before crew is because otherwise you couldn’t row.

…you have been caught rowing/coxing in your sleep.

…a full night’s sleep is a myth.

…you’re the only one you know above the age of 6 who goes to bed at 8:30PM.
