Rowing to Fashion Week

I had high aspirations for a sub 7:30 finish on my 2K rowing time trial. For now, I stay a land dweller (7:52). Again, faster, soon…Would I need a coxswain shouting at me?
Living in the proud crew town of Philly – I definitely want to try rowing on the river…
Off to New York for a great investor dinner while the city is overrun by Fashion Week crowds… Fall has not arrived yet and it is already Spring in the fashion world…
