The Canadian Indoor Rowing Challenge has been rescheduled for Saturday November 7 to Sunday November 8.

The virtual event, which was originally scheduled to take place September 19 to 20, was postponed due to the poor air quality levels affecting the British Columbia region and other parts of Canada from the devastating wildfires in the United States.

Registration is now open and closes on Saturday October 31. Late entries will be accepted unless you are taking part in the HomeRace Challenge option (late fees will apply). Individuals registered for the previous event date will automatically have their registration transferred to the new date.

Anyone with access to a Concept2 rowing machine can participate* by submitting their results online within the 48-hour event window.

Individuals can also choose to register for the HomeRace Challenge, real-time virtual races against High Performance rowers taking place Saturday November 7.

All Canadian registrants will be entered into a draw for the grand prize of an indoor rowing machine. The top three finishers in each race category will receive a digital certificate, and Canadian certificate recipients will be entered into a draw for one of 12 RCA merchandise packages.

*RCA permits the use of ergometers indoors for individual use only. Indoor erg group training is not advised. Please refer to the medical section of the Competitor Handbook for more information.
