SEA BRIGHT — The Training Room at OAR Fitness will host its eighth annual “Rowathon,” a half-marathon indoor rowing fundraiser, at 10 a.m. May 7 at 1006 Ocean Ave.
Proceeds will benefit the Cancer Support Community at Monmouth Medical Center.
A half-marathon row is 21,097 meters and can take an individual anywhere from 90-120 minutes to complete. Teams of two and three can use the traditional erg (rowing machine) or the ski erg. Prizes will be awarded for the fastest times in each race category, so experienced rowers are encouraged to compete. The event will also feature goody bags, T-shirts and refreshments.
Individuals as well as teams of two or three are encouraged to participate. The entry fee is $35 per person. To register, visit https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2016-east-coast-half-marathon-indoor-rowing-championship-tickets-24487803680.
