Online alarm clock for 7:07 am
As the rowers finish their river training at 7:07 am, this alarm can mark the moment to pack the oars, check the boat and head home. It leaves enough of the morning to rinse off and sort out wet gear before 8:00 am, without letting the final jobs around the shed drift into the next hour.
Keep the alarm page open and the phone awake while everyone is leaving the river, with the volume high enough to be heard over conversation and moving equipment. If the browser is closed or the phone falls asleep, the rowers may receive no alarm sound at all. For a departure that cannot slip, use a separate phone alarm as a backup before putting the handset into a bag.
Coming off the water this early can leave a useful stretch of sleep available after 7:07 am, especially following a dawn start. Decide before lying down whether the alarm marks a short rest or the start of the next commitment, then set one clear wake-up time rather than repeatedly delaying it. Leave dry clothes and keys together first, so getting up later does not turn into a search through damp rowing kit.
Common questions
What happens once the alarm goes off?
It rings through your device's speakers on a loop until you stop it from this page. There's no separate app notification, so make sure your volume is turned up before you rely on it.
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
Can I use this on my phone instead of a laptop?
Yes, it works in a mobile browser the same way, but phones are more likely to lock the screen or sleep, which can stop the alarm from ringing. A laptop or desktop tends to be more reliable for this.
Can I set more than one alarm at a time?
This page is built around a single alarm at a time. For multiple alarms, open a separate tab for each one and set a different time in each, keeping every tab open until it's rung.
