  1. I was recruited for and rowed on the udub crew team my freshman year back in 2008/2009. I lasted one year. Never thought I could push my body THAT hard, and I had already been doing crew four years prior to that. The thing that I remember standing out the most was the annual triathlon.

  2. One of the best books I ever read, with an intimate look at how difficult times could be, and how the brave and fearless people of our country rose to meet it. That it is true makes it all the more special.

  3. My Grandfather rowed for UW in the late 20s. The 1929 photo in the front of the book of the team members sawing a large log has my grandfather, Gail W Burleigh, in it. At Grandpa Burleigh’s funeral, his 3rd son, said he was most proud of his rowing for UW. He was a a dry land boy, very poor, but played defensive end for football in high school and a short time for UW.

    However, he couldn’t stay in college and had to return to Great Falls to help his single mother pay bills. He was a husband, father to 4 sons, and a cattle rancher in MT the rest of his life. He also helped fight the MannGulch fire of 1949 since he owned the Beartooth ranch close to where to smoke jumpers died.
    Looking forward to this movie, Susan

  4. Christmas – when the Boys In The Boat film officially opens – is in six days. I lucked into a pre-release screening last night and was knocked out, COMPLETELY knocked out. When a book is as good and deeply layered as BITB, the film that often follows doesn't usually hit those same high notes. This one definitely did and man, I was SO glad.
    Spoiler alert: there are no space ships or comic book characters in this movie, just fast boats and genuine heroes.

  5. I can't wait to see my uncle the "Austrian Painter". Imagine if they just told the truth about him for once. I will be going to see this movie. The jerseys with the sun symbol are the most beautiful ❤🎉

  6. I rowed for the University of San Diego and still row with friends 40 years later. I still am friends with the guys I rowed with, it changed my life. This was an awesome book. This is a great sport for kids to get into.

  7. Don’t think it’s going to make it to Oscars. People say there’s no diversity. But that was 1936 in Seattle, how much diversity can you find? And how can you fake history? Sigh

  8. Some similarities between BitB and Laura Hillenbrand’s Seabiscuit. I am a big horse racing fan and as how great Hillenbrand’s book was, BinB was much more thrilling. Can’t wait for this movie. Hope Clooney did a good job.

  9. In the chapter where the book talks about Washington's race against Princeton, it describes Carnegie Lake in detail. I kayak in that lake frequently and the description exactly fits what the lake is still like 100 years later. I think that was filmed on location, so I can't wait to see it. And as a very competitive dragon boat racer, I can identify with the team. I'll be one of the first people to see it.

  10. My mom was in a canoe club when she was a child and where I am, there’s a canoe club near me so everytime I see them out in the ocean, my mom would try to pressure me to sign up with her but I refused. Mainly because I didn’t want us all to tip over thanks to me and I’m always out of sync. I’m glad that canoeing is getting the recognition it deserves though, it isn’t an easy sport.

  11. Looks like a good movie. A lot of people are complaining about the lack of diversity but if the story is historically accurate I don't see a problem.
