Fastest Woman In The World
Posted by Concept2 News on the 24th of March 2001
In the aftermath of this year's World Indoor Rowing Championship, many a person gets motivated to try and improve their 2,000 metre time. They download the Training Guide from the web site, they start training five times a week, they alienate friends and colleagues with their obsessive training etc. etc. Turns out, all you need to do is move to New Zealand where they're obviously adding something to the lamb. Not only do they have the world's fastest man in the form of Rob Waddell, but now Georgina Evers-Swindell has just taken over the mantle of world's quickest woman.Georgina, who finished second behind Amy Fuller of the United States when she set the previous record at the 2000 World Indoor Rowing Championship, set the new mark of 6:31.6 at the New Zealand national rowing team trials last week.Full British and World records for every age and weight category can be found at http://www.therowingcompany.com/v4/brit_world_records.htm
