The rowing machine company (Concept2) understands what it means to be age-friendly



I do spend some of my life rowing away on a Concept2 machine so when I saw this video I had to watch.

The company runs national and international competitions. One of the standard benchmarks is how long it takes to row 2,000 metres. You can see the qualifying times by age, for men and women and body type in the chart.

Look at the way the company covers all of the age groups from 30 through to 95. None of this 65+ nonsense, rather each age group is the same size.

I will not tell you what my time is, other than to say that I would not qualify!
