Huge shout to all those rowers (& non-rowers) worldwide warming up and getting ready to pull together for the @EndurowChallen1. Last year I managed 1 hr as part of a team but know there will be lots rowing for 4hrs 🤯 in support of the Para Rowing foundation 💪 #EnduRowChallenge

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Flawless performance again from the GBR 4+. Huge congratulations to @hashtag_fox @BFGRower @ErinWysocki @ellenbuttrick and @OStanhope. Paralympic Champions 🥇🇬🇧🙌

[British Rowing @BritishRowing]

WOW! Another amazing race and another gold medal for #ParalympicsGB🔥🙌

Well done to Ellen, James, Ollie, Giedre and Erin who absolutely smashed it 💪

What a way for #ParalympicsGB team to finish #Tokyo2020.

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Fantastic result for @LaurenceW_GB and @itslaurenrowles. Kept their heads all the way down the course. DOUBLE PARALYMPIC CHAMPIONS 🥇🙌🙌🙌

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Tough race for @BenjaminPritch1 in the final, I know he will have expected more but has so much to be proud of on his journey so far and will use this to push for the podium for Paris.

[ParalympicsGB @ParalympicsGB]

And it’s GOLD for @itslaurenrowles and @LaurenceW_GB 🥇

They retain their Rio title!

What a journey it has been for #ParalympicsGB Benjamin Pritchard, having finished 5th in finals 🙌

Well done, a great debut at #Tokyo2020 Paralympics 👏

@RowingVoice Argh its agonising! Ben looking like he is keeping in touch here!

[The Rowing Voice @RowingVoice]

Breaking news - the lanes for the A-finals have been redrawn into echelon (winners in lanes 1-2 not central) by the Fairness Commission. This is usually due to expectations of very cross wind in medal races.

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Nip and tuck between Chuvashev and Klemp in the PR1 B final. Chuvashev coming through to get the win. Interesting, Klemp is one of very few athletes having competed in all 3 boat classes starting out in the LTA4+ (PR3) and is looking to make his mark now in the PR1.

For one last time let's get ready to cheer on our GB rowers at #Tokyo2020 - can our three Para-Rowing crews secure medals for @ParalympicsGB? 🙌

We'll find out from 3.10am tomorrow morning �For one last time let's get ready to cheer on our GB rowers at #Tokyo2020 - can our three Para-Rowing crews secure medals for @ParalympicsGB? 🙌

Has to be said @Channel4 have done a fantastic job covering all the #ParaRowing competitions so far this games. To my knowledge it's the first time there has been live footage of all the racing at a games. Both footage and commentary has been incredible 👏. #TokyoParalympics

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Coming into this regatta I would have backed 2019 world silver medallist Alexey Chuvashev to be a medal contender at these games. Very suprised to see him not make the A final in the repecharge overnight. B final for the RPC PR1.

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Fantastic watching @BenjaminPritch1 overnight in the repechage laying down a relentless rhythm to come in ahead of Spain and take the win 💪.
All crews in the A final ✅

@S7OCKY Likewise Richard, really great to meet you too! What a cracking weekend! Hope you and the family enjoyed it as much as we did. All the best.

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

@Hambofoundation @FestivalSportUK That was definitely a reminder I am no where as fit as I was, good fun tho! Great chatting about your foundation and the incredible work continuing to raise the profile and support those with spinal cord injury 👏

[TomAggar @TomAggar]

Things must be feeling very real now for the @BritishRowing #pararowing team finally on that flight to Tokyo! Travel well @hashtag_fox @ellenbuttrick @ErinWysocki @OStanhope @BFGRower @itslaurenrowles @LaurenceW_GB and of course @BenjaminPritch1.
