Rowing: Beaumont building for season ahead

British Rowing athlete Jack Beaumont knows the gruelling work now will pay off later.

During the early part of a season, many of the athletes work towards senior trials and trying to beat their teammates, rather than as a single unit.

β€œThroughout the whole year we’re a team,” Beaumont told ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Berkshire’s Tim Dellor. β€œWe’re a team, we train as a team, we support each other, yet we want to beat each other.

β€œI want my teammates to be as good as they can be, but I also want to beat them.”

And Beaumont explained that the side do get to go to a hot weather training camp soon to escape the cold of their Caversham training base.

β€œA week after the trials, we head to Aviz in Portugal for our long crew boat training camp.

β€œWe’ll work really on our aerobic capacity and also on our ability to mould together as crews.”
