2019.7.6 dcc race training day

6/7/2019

0 Comments

 
"A bright sunny and somewhat breezy day welcomed 18 DCC members to the race training day on Saturday.
Wind prevented the use of race boats – and races, but the directionally stable sea kayaks, touring boats and junior master lite kayaks proved ideal for practising the use of wing paddles as we charged through the white horses. The K2 Baracuda  proved ideal for the conditions with Ben and Daniel charging frantically up and down the dock -  usually in sinc.
The afternoon races were cancelled but 7 paddlers did complete the 500m time trial on the slightly sheltered side of the dock.
The results – below – set a personal time for individuals to use to measure their own improvement over time and the effect of using different boats. 
Many thanks to the members who turned out to help on the water and on shore – life would not be the same without your willing hands.
( next race training day Sunday 25th August.                
​Next marathons 22nd Sept. Lancaster canal  and 6th Oct Macclesfield )
