If you’re participating in the row event, your unit has to provide you with a stationary rowing machine. It must have mechanically adjustable resistance, and the seat, handles, and foot straps have to be adjustable, too. The rowing machine must be equipped with an odometer, and it has to be calibrated before the test.

You get a short warm-up period and some time to adjust the machine to your body size and adjust resistance. On the command of “Get set,” position yourself comfortably. The clock begins when your grader says “Go.” Like the bike event, your grader calls out the remaining time every 30 seconds during the last two minutes of the test and every second during the last ten seconds. You have 25 minutes to complete 5,000 meters. You must continue rowing until you reach 5,000 meters, regardless of the time.
