The slightly bitter wind didn't put 38 paddlers off doing today's race. There were no startlingly good times, which seemed to be all rather slow, but there were some good performances and a few changes in the Series leader board.
Laura bagged Paul as the best partner, finishing 2nd in the race, but moving into top spot on the leader board. Zyggy also got it sussed with Shob away, getting Dave B to partner him and he now moves up to 2nd in the overall points. (Don't forget, only the 4 best scores count.) My calculations show that any one of 13 people could theoretically win the series, 8 of them juniors.
Fern turned in the best result today with a PB over 4 minutes faster than her previous one and she still paddled up the middle of the river, so there could be yet another even better result from her at the next race. So 20 points and a tee-shirt for her!
The 6th and last race is on 9th March, with all to play for.

Meanwhile, about 30 club members followed today's strenuous efforts with Sunday Lunch at the Larwood & Voce - hopefully pictures soon.
