UM Rowing are proud to launch the final event of The Erg League! Join us as we finish off with a calorie-themed test of endurance and pacing strategy perfect for Rowers, CrossFitters, HYROX athletes and fitness enthusiasts of all levels.
Event Format:
The RowErgs will have their units adjusted to calories and set to repeat intervals of 45 seconds. For each interval, participants will need to row the number of calories equivalent to the interval number, i.e., 1 calorie for the 1st interval, 2 calories for the 2nd interval, 3 calories for the 3rd interval, etc.
Each time a participant clears the required number of calories they will advance to the next round and can rest until the next interval begins. This process will repeat itself until a participant fails to reach the number of required calories and is eliminated from the challenge. The competitors who remain in the challenge for the longest will be crowned as the winners.
Prizes will be given to the top 3 Males and Females recording the fastest final times.
Erg League Point System:
New and returning league race participants will receive a number of points according to their placing. First placing Male and Female will receive 100 points and each subsequent placing will receive 5 fewer points (ie. second place = 95 points, third place = 90 points).
Trophies and additional prizes will be given to the 3 male and female athletes who rack up the most points after all three events.
