A Failed Rowing Race Plan

[@VegasMilgauss]

I’m a simple man, instant like any rowing video 👍

[@ievavaitkevicius2336]

it is significantly more difficult to keep a good race with an off start, ive been there before. you guys kept a really good positive mentality tho, something i myself really struggle with. very mature rowers, i admire that.

[@willturner9466]

Love your work Pat, keep her up!!

[@PatHanratty]

Cheers Will!

[@miguelvieyra7270]

Pat you and George always late for things haha, whoever the bloke behind the car was, he was funny. that crosswind looked gnarly and also you are sooo pale! gratz on the race and another awesome vid!

[@anthieas_flowers4940]

You guys did amazing and great on not feeling bad about it!!!! My last regatta was really sad though. My boat was in first for about the first 500 meters and another boat rammed into us. We ended up losing the race the boat that hit us got third, and we got fifth. I still cry about it, that was the last race with my Coach who moved. I felt it was my fault and most of my boat felt terrible about it, we were bruised(literally and figuratively) and shocked about the whole thing, it was just a very bad regatta.

[@PatHanratty]

Ah no chin up Blaire! On to the next one 💪

[@johnderby185]

Really like the use of “Misirlou” from Pulp Fiction and “In Motion” from The Social Network. Awesome music choices

[@PatHanratty]

Cheers man! Great films

[@mrtoolegittoquit2]

1:54 what a creep😅😂. Nah you guys did good. You're right though, alot of it is psychological. Keep up the slick strok'ems man! 😍

Missed the dramatic ending from last years race. Gym Shark sponsor? Should be, you guys deserve it. Good break down of the race, on to the next. Buddy in the rear window, obviously a big fan. Appropriate ending, philosophizing about a pair. 😄 😄

[@PatHanratty]

Hahaha cheers Rich - yep !

[@ricardorusso2583]

My strategy is always to try to lead from the start and control the opposition from the front. It is very hard to race when you can’t see your adversaries. Cheers and good luck for Marlow!! 👍

[@samuelmontgomery7931]

Red Bull in the morning on race day. A bond all rowers will always share. 🙏

[@sidney2738]

as a cox I carry my race plan with me TVP quad I dropped it in the river boating didn't go well

[@martyd6718]

How did you get the Social Network music

[@PatHanratty]

Downloaded it?? 🤙

[@benhall2866]

whats your go to UT2 erg

[@PatHanratty]

I don't really do any UT2 man but next season I will probably get into that sort of stuff

[@j15aboatvlogs72]

Congrats on the regatta

[@natesiwiec5499]

Are you going to the Henley this year?

[@PatHanratty]

Yeah! See you there??

[@natesiwiec5499]

Definitely!

[@peterjacobs1376]

@pat.hanratty You think you failed - we were in that race too in lane 4 and finished 7th out of 7! We thought we had you with 600m to go but you stepped up a gear or two. We both turn 57 this year which we think is a reasonable excuse.

[@PatHanratty]

Haha cheers Pete! I’d certainly say this is a reasonable excuse not sure how that makes feel though 😯 Cheers for the race mate!

[@sobaldrick1]

It's all good having a race plan, but if you don't race what is around you then you can just lose out! It's difficult when you are training with no idea where you stand compared to everyone else, sometimes you wonder if you are training in a vacuum of shit, which makes you think you are good. Then when it comes to confidently executing a race plan it can all go wrong. Good luck at Marlow, Reading Am (if you go), Qualies and finally HRR!

[@JoaoSantos-hi7jm]

Keep the good work bro

[@typxxilps]

You definitely have to work on that head wind thing. Maybe you have to blow that headwind away and get tail wind instead - just on your lane only. But that won't work either cause you prefer to win under fair conditions, right? Try again, but harder, more focussed and less distracted by useless things like drone footage - or better pursue the next dream . If you really wanna win don't care about footage cause if there will be a note worthy result there will be always footage nowadays. You simply have to ask for on the podium or mail to your competitors of that race if they or their relatives could support you. The winners of this race would love to have your footage too, I guess. If you wanna compete to win then stay focussed and forget footage. What could you tell more with footage that you couldn't tell with a photo from the finish line ir podium? Hope to see you next year talking about a race while showing a picture from finish and podium or just from the hardest moment in that season cause threre is a straight line from hardest moments to most successfull in life cause rowing and life are no gambles.

[@PatHanratty]

What's the point of winning if you can't vlog it though!!

[@jwest1084]

Soo good

[@PatHanratty]

Thanks Hive!

[@lartorgames]
