For the first time ever, rowers from all around the globe will collectively row from Rio to Tokyo during the Rowing Event in the Olympic Virtual Series.
The competition, which spans three weeks, allows those interested in joining by rowing from a personal rowing machine (at home or at your gym) or on the open water.

While many parts of the world were in lockdown, a staggering 131 World Records were broken on a Concept2 indoor machine.
Staying at home is a challenge for all of us. When you are an elite athlete used to daily training sessions with your team, isolation brings particular challenges. When the Covid-19 pandemic struck in early stages of March, rowers took it to the indoor machine and broke records like never before. In just 75 days these 131 new records were broken.
While some rowers just wanted to ‘get some kilometers up’ during isolation training, most of them were aware of the world records that may have been in their grasp. Most notably, young American rower Isaiah Harrison, 16, now owns all 13 indoor rowing World Records for his age group – from 500m to the marathon – most of them were broken during the lockdown.
In Australia, Georgina Rowe broke a couple records… accidentally, proving, she said, that quarantine life can be athletically productive. Rowe was taking part in an Australian indoor rowing competition with athletes from each state competing against each other on home rowing machines.
“I just wanted to get some kilometers up for my State in the interstate indoor regatta,” Rowe said.
Fellow countryman Erik Horrie proved that para-rowers could also smash records. He now owns the best time in the 1 minute, 100m, 500m, 6’000m and the Marathon. In total, Australian indoor rowers broke 36 World Records, followed by the USA (26) and Italy (12).
During lockdown, all top athletes trained hard on the erg. Big names like Emma Twigg, Hamish Bond, Olli Zeidler, Martino Goretti or Jackie Kiddle are now indoor World Record holders (see list attached).
And there may be more to come.

Covid-19 has affected us all. Never before has the world been through such an uncertain time.

The Electronic Rowing Games will take place on the weekends of the 13th and 20th of June. There are 5 categories: Senior, Adult, Student, Junior, and Para. (5 for men, 5 for women)

The 2021 World Rowing Indoor Championships (WRICH), presented by Concept2, the pinnacle event for indoor rowers will be staged as a live virtual competition. The finals of this event will be scheduled to take place on the weekend of 27-28 February 2021.
While further details are to be determined, FISA’s intention is to organise a WRICH with multiple rounds of competition. The first round would be open to any competitor with access to a Concept2 machine (‘static Concept2 Model C, D or E with a PM3, PM4 or PM5). The final round of the Championships is intended to be a virtual live race.
This platform will also allow World Rowing to promote indoor rowing beyond elite-level competition. Certain details, including those around rules, race categories, qualification processes and timelines are still under examination and will be announced as they become finalised.
