Today was OK. It was a solid race and I did what I needed to do. Today was not the best ever row. The quarterfinals are a tricky stage. You don’t want to do too much. The semi is tomorrow. You want to conserve energy. The semis at the Olympic Games are a horrible place to be. Once that’s out of the way, you can relax and enjoy the final. Tim’s a fighter. It’s good to have a little fight. It looked like SYNEK was fairly dominant. He continues to be the man to beat.
