When the wind and weather get in the way, it’s nice to come together for some phys anyway.

Yesterday morning we joined together to smash out a seasonal circuits session, which included:

-12 days of Fitmass
-followed by a reindeer relay
-and finally the Christmas core crusher!

We even had time for the Sally finisher - IYKYK!

Thanks to Megan Rodgers for organising, Sea Cadets for the use of their room, and to Coached by Nikki - Strength & Fitness, Wellness, Mindset for hosting, and especially big thanks to all who came along 🧡

The coffee after was well deserved - thank you to The Point Exmouth Marina for having us!

A wonderful reminder of what makes our club so special; community, commerarderie and… lunch!

We had a brilliant social row over to Topsham and back yesterday, it was such a lovely way to spend the day enjoying our little corner of the world together.

Thanks to coxes and crews for making it so fabulous ☀️

What a day at the Weymouth Mixed Grand Prix yesterday! ☀️
