Christmas Calorie Challenge
Everyone tends to over indulge at Christmas, eating a lot more than usual and generally spending more time on the sofa watching TV than out and about being physically active. Insipred by new years resolutions this is Chistmas payback. A challenge to burn off the calories found in a typical Christmas dinner (approx 1000 Kcals) and if that proves too easy then there are all the naughty extras to burn off such as mince pies and christmas pud. Ho Ho Ho.
Head of the River Challenge
In the summer months regattas are held all over the country featuring sprint races from 300-2000m, but during the colder months of the year rowing clubs train for, and race at Head races. These are generally long distance time trials that are over 2km in length. Dart Totnes ARC holds one of the longest head races in the country here in Devon.

The distance each crew races varies from regatta to regatta and depends upon the stretch of river available to the club.
The challenge this term is to see how quickly you can row 1000metres (or 500meters if you are rowing in a fixed seat).
