Best Answer

A Polish Junior (U18) rowing eight briefly held the world record (set , because of the beneficial conditions at Plodiv in 1999). Steve Redgrave won 5 rowing Olympic golds and a bronze, but what most people don't know is that he also won a silver in bobsleigh world championships. Rowing was the first intercollegiate sport in the USA, started in 1852 by the Harvard - Yale boatrace. It is claimed that rowing a 2 kilometre race is equal to playing back-to-back Basketball games
