Chelmsford Winter Series Marathon (22 Jan 2023)

22/1/2023

0 Comments

 
A sadly depleted team represented Stortford at the Chelmsford marathon on Sunday - it was left to just  six paddlers to try to sustain the reputation of the club.
The race comprised one, two or three loops of the River Cam through Chelmsford.
Kerstin and Catherine made a spectacular recovery to finish 6th in the K2 class after they were completely spun around shortly after the start of the race. They won the medal for the fastest all-female crew.

Petr opted to enter the Vets race mistakenly thinking the course would not be suitable for high-kneel C1s, but nevertheless achieved an excellent 4th position.

Eilidh took silver in her class, and together with Oliver (1st Paddleabiity in GP) and Emilie (Gold as the 1st girl in u12 K1) the three scored enough points to bring Stortford a respectable 3rd place amongst the novice juniors.

8 miles:
Senior K2 - Kerstin Queeney & Catherine Ayling 6th (1:09:01)
Vet M K1 - Petr Luksan 4th (1:18:54)

5 miles:
Ladies K1 - Eilidh White 2nd (55:42)

3 miles:
GP - Oliver Klumpler 4th (43:41)
u12 K1 - Emilie Klumpler 7th (41:55)
Club points were another matter though, and with such a small team, a disappointing 5th place on the day was inevitable. The poor team result here has brought down our overall position in the Winter Series to 5th, as well as 3rd in the Dick Grieve league (novice juniors) and 3rd for the Bob Porter (participation in u12 K1). There is one more race to go - can the situation be retrieved?
