The events are the Marathon, Half-Marathon, the 5000m, the 2000m and the 500m (sprint). Team of 4 can also participate in all events, except the 500m.
ErgZone is the ONLY mobile app that allows coaches and athletes to program a custom ergometer workouts. I also invite athletes and teams to train virtually using the same platform. The application also allows results to be ranked globally via an online leaderboard, and racing LIVE (head-to-head).
For 2026, Teams of 4 men or 4 women can join. The reasoning is to create a collective LIVE sloep rowing experience in a virtual environment. At the moment, individual results are averaged to create a boat position (rank) amongst other boats at the end of the LIVE race.
The software team is currently developing the ability for individual results to be averaged LIVE during head-to-head racing; effectively creating boat vs. boat LIVE action.
Online documentation is accessible. Please inform info@robox.fitness so the development team is aware.
Good question. To become comfortable working in and connecting your rowing machine with ErgZone takes a little practice. Believe me, just ask any member of my classes! If you choose to train with us (starting in January) you will have plenty of time to become comfortable.
ErgZone has suggested creating formal practice sessions along the way; where registrants will connect together and learn together.
Training for a row marathon using heart rate zones (with an approximate MHR from the 500m base) and limited time (2 x 45 to 60-minute rows per week) provides several specific and strategic benefits—especially for beginners or busy individuals.
Heart rate zone training with a time-efficient structure helps beginners:
There will be no refunds. Please know this upfront. We count on your entry fee to support this event and all its associated costs.
Row submissions and leaderboards open at 0900 CET January 18th 2026, and end in late February 2026. Row submissions during the leaderboard open will be ranked along with the final submissions.
Yes! It's definitely possible. Although we have limited spaces available for 2026, please contact me as soon as possible to make arrangements.
If you are rowing on machine that does not interface with ErgZone, or on a Concept2 RowErg with a PM older that the PM5, you can still compete! You won't be able to connect to live racing on ErgZone, but you can manually submit your score on the ErgZone app. It will count in our official results and rankings.
We are still working on this. Locally in Terschelling, we are trying to find budget to provide participant medallions and Terschelling flag headbands! Concept2 also provides a certificate for those who submit their race via the Concept2 logbook.
This is my first year organizing the Rondsje Om. I hope to get better at this in the next few years.. so you get better stuff!
Rowers IN OTHER TIME ZONES may compete independently at their local time while the leaderboards are open.
My wife, who is Dutch, remembers taking a Rondsje Om with her family when she was young; on Sunday, a nice little walk around her local village. My translation; a most unique virtual endurance challenge inspired by the legendary waters and maritime heritage of Terschelling, Netherlands. Race solo or with your team — from anywhere in the world. What a Rondsje Om this will be!
The Rondsje Om hosts virtual sporting challenges that translate the maritime history of Terschelling and the beauty of the Wadden Sea into inspiring and groundbreaking cultural engagement opportunities for multiple stakeholders.
If you have questions, please contact us. Better yet, save your spot, and register today.

The training plan is FREE, and is offered via a downloadable Google Sheet. I only require an email address to provide view only access rights. If you need something a bit more personal, please contact me.
If you're comfortable with the plan, my advise is to register for an event. Registration creates a strong bond to this new year goal.
Note*: With first sign-up/ sign-in with ErgZone, please be mindful of a fair gender classification, and weight categorization. This will influence your rankings via the global leaderboard.
Sloep Boats, Olympic 8+ and other hybrid athlete teams are welcome to participate in head-to-head marathon rankings. 8 rowers will row together. ErgZone will calculate the average pace for the collective boat. This would be very exciting during the marathon race on Saturday, June 17th! For instructions please refer to the Team Formation article.
Your journey and training success means a lot to me, and can be an inspiration for others. Please share your journey using the following hashtags:
My coach use to say how much glory there was in rowing on your own; getting the meters in when no one is watching. It's the rower's form of integrity.
I see you garage athletes. I see you trail runners. Let's get these meters in, together.
