Some of Putney’s rowers set off to Boston, USA this October half term to participate in the famous, Head of the Charles race.

The trip began with a warm welcome from Radcliffe, Harvard Women’s boathouse, where the girls were boating from. After getting settled, the girls started their training with an ergo session.

During one of the sessions they were lucky enough to meet American Olympic rower Gevvie Stone, who was kind enough to share some of her top tops and racing advice.

This was then followed by some eagerly awaited on-water training.
