We’ve been coming together live twice a week for head-to-head matches for months, and today we turned up the heat. The stakes have never been higher, with the global winners of each Classification receiving a Polar Ignite 2 fitness watch. The competition went all out in the lanes as they vied for the prize and their spot in the race Rankings.
Racers in Class I and Class II sprinted down the 1,000m course with equal ferocity, as several members from Class II could have landed on the Class I podium with their record times. Class III was marked by a two-way tie for second place, with members Poptimal and jdraymon finishing at exactly 3:07.99.
There were break-away leaders in Classes IV and VII, ahead of a closely-contested pack within seconds of each other. Class VIII brought the pace in the second heat, with all three podium finishers starting at 10 AM Eastern. It was good to see frequent Race of the Week competitors show up in Classes IX and X, sharing similar race times with Class VII.
Well raced, everyone.

What started with my husband thinking a rower would be a great low impact full body exercise turned into wanting one for myself. We wanted to compete and thought it would be a blast. My kids saw us doing it so we got one for them too so we can all compete.
All machinery is only as good as you using it, but I have loved the community and engagement that Ergatta brings to this rower. It’s always our choice to get on it, but Ergatta can keep you engaged when you are ready!
The one time of day I can relax: working out on my Ergatta
I hate most forms of physical activity. But I don't think of my time on the Ergatta Lite as a workout. It's a time for Zen meditation. I transport somewhere else hearing the water and moving forward. Truly grateful for this machine.
