Only Fools Do 2Ks
Sunday, April 7, 2024
Heats start at 9 am CDT
Entry $26
The 2K. You know it. It’s the race you love to hate and hate to love. You can’t seem to quit it, and it never goes away. The crown jewel of the Ergon Metron, our signature event, and the race against which all other erg races are measured. The best of strategy, execution, stamina, and technique. Do you have it?
The fourth and final stage race of the Ergon Metron Series Cup. Only Fools Do 2Ks can be entered as a solo event or as part of the series.
There will be decals, race caps and medals to win, official race merch for sale, and the champions will have their names written on the Fools Fest Sprints Trophy and be crowned with a Fools Fest Sprints performance bucket hat!
FFS 1000m 2-Person Relay
Sunday, April 7, 2024
9:35 AM CDT
Entry $26 (each rower)
Grab your pair partner, life partner, roomie, or friend from the club and sign up for our 1000m relay! Each rower will row 500m, and your times will be combined to find our fastest duo!
All teams will be in the same heat and register under "Open," the leaderboard will sort out the results into mixed, men's, or women's, based on your Concept2 gender designation.
Are you sharing an erg between two racers?
If you only have one erg in your house, row one right after the other. When the first person finishes their 500m, have the second person connect their mobile device to the PM5 and do their 500m. The app will combine your results.
Racers sharing one erg MUST do their relay like they would at an in-person event; immediately get in the seat when your partner finishes and start your piece. We will only accept results from 2-Person teams who submit results one right after the other. No gaps or naps!
