	World Rowing Championships 2004 Banyoles Spain (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		With the help of my buddies at Marin Rowing, Perry at Open Water Rowing, and Anna Cohen from University of Miami (home for the summer with her own training schedule for the summer) I was able to get on the water every day, plus one work out a day on the rowing machine.
		We then made it to St. Joseph's boathouse for the 5pm row, which ended up being on rowing machines because all the rain water caused the river to be too high and fast to row on.
		We weren´t allowed to row today because there was no "official" time set aside for the adaptive boats to be on the water, and I am sure there is a great risk of us drowning if we don't have the proper athorities following us on the race course (grin).
