5 Hundreds and Thousands

After the 500m heats our 7 semis were raced within 75 minutes of each other! This is why I think that supporting these races is more tiring than being in the boat...


After the hard day of racing we have the following events to look forward to over tomorrow and Sunday:
Bridgitte: K1 1000m A final, K1 500m A final.

Calvin: C1 1000m B final

Jen and Tiff: K2 500m B final

Nick: K1 1000m B final, K1 500m B final

Len: K1 1000m B final

Shaun and Mike: K2 500m A final

Cam and Stu: K2 500m B final

Chrisjan, PW, Fouche and Gavin: K4 1000m B final

That is an amazing effort!!!!

Special mention must go to Jen and Tiff who have maybe had three training sessions in the K2 together before they lined up in the starting blocks. They only narrowly missed the A final in their K2 500m semi going through comfortably to the B final.

But before we tackle the list above we must do 200m heats and semis which are schelduled for tomorrow morning.

The end of the day tomorrow will be the long distance K1 5000m race. Where Fish legend Len and Cape paddler Gavin are racing in the mens and fellow Cape paller Lindi and Tiff are racing the womens.
