You are invited to be part of this exciting national event by getting on a rowing machine and rowing on Saturday, February 11, 2023 between 9 a.m. and noon where you live.

Indoor Rowing Day is open to everyone, from Olympians to first-timers, CrossFitters to you on your home rower. Every kilometre counts as we attempt to travel 5,514 kms from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

It’s easy to take part. We would love to hear what you have planned. Or just join us on the day.

Send us photos and videos when you start and finish. And add to the National Tally by emailing us your number of participants and total kilometres rowed.

Newfoundland and Labrador will kick us off in style, as they have since our first event in 2020.

Last year, we had all 10 provinces partic- ipating, with 343 participants and 3,370 kilometres, with the COVID-19 pandemic still putting a damper on group events.

In our first year, in February 2020, Canadian rowers proved they were more than up to the challenge as the tally for the day was an impressive 7,567km, exceeding the coast to coast goal by 2,053km.

Our goal in 2023 is to beat our 2020 numbers! Let’s do this Canada.

Let us know what we can do to help you set up your unique Indoor Rowing Day event. Then contribute your photos, videos, participant numbers and total kilometres rowed to our national tally as we go from coast to coast to coast!!
