ATHLETE CHECK-IN Doors open 7:00AM Saturday Jan. 31, 2026. Allow enough time for athlete check-in. At check-in, get your athlete registration card which you will need on the race floor. Don’t lose it! There is no on-site registration, however there will be a very limited number of “bullpen” seats for 2,000 meter events. LIGHTWEIGHT WEIGH-IN Athletes must check-in first and then proceed to the lightweight weigh-in adjacent to the race floor. You must weigh-in between 1 and 2 hours before your scheduled race time. In the case of open-weight events without a separate lightweight class, a rower is eligible to win a medal if they have weighed-in and there are two or more lightweights competing in that event. Those events are 30-minute, marathon, college freshman 2K and 500m sprint championships. There are no lightweight youth categories. WARM-UP & MARSHALING On race day, you’ll have access to a warm-up room featuring 80 ergs. Please be considerate of athletes in races before yours. Unless otherwise instructed, athletes will be escorted to a briefing and to the race floor by USRowing officials from the warm-up room 30 minutes prior to their event. LOCATION Alexandria City High School is located at 3330 King Street in Alexandria, VA 22302, just 5 miles south of Washington, D.C.
