Irish Olympic rowers Sinead Jennings and Claire Lambe are living the dream

The Rowing Ireland training facility on Inniscarra Lake is overlooked by a wooden-decked balcony.

On an early morning, if offers the same view as the sun, peeking over the horizon and across the water.

Day-in and day-out, Sinead Jennings and Claire Lambe are present on that lake but when they emerge onto the balcony for a post-training interview, Lambe quickly apologises for the veil of cobwebs on the seats.
