Sophie Connolly breaks World Record!
The club being closed and not being allowed out on the water didn’t stop club member Sophie Connolly who got up one morning and decided to go for the World Record for 100,000 metres on the rowing machine. 7 hours 44 minutes and 21.2 seconds later Sophie was a World Record holder with the achievement officially confirmed by Concept 2.
Congratulations from everyone at the club Sophie!
