Athletes from all over the world

Most of the other countries have arrived in the Athletes Village now. It has been interesting seeing the way each country's athletes row and behave in general. With the new faces in camp it has been made clear to us by the coaches not to get caught up in all the hype, and remember what we are all here for. The regatta set up is starting to take shape, with all the officials towers being built and all boat racks being filled it's looking pretty spectacular. I noticed today that there is even an athletes only massage room! The training sessions have been going well and all the NZ crews are feeling confident going into racing, which starts only three days from now. Thank you again for all the support you have given us, now it is our turn to do the business.
