We are taking entries for the Manvers marathon but, due to the weed closing our club, you need to get your entry to Graham either by email (marathon@gscc-online.com ) or phone (01724 721921) ASAP.
The race is on a lake and will provide competition for all levels of ability.
Even our newest pointy boat paddlers can join in the fun. This is a perfect opportunity for “marathon newbies”.
A number of our younger paddlers have been before (see below)
Can you name this “paddler”?
There are plenty of opportunities for spectators including an on-site cafe.
All the Hasler divisions will be available and there will be races for the Geoff Sanders Trophy for under 14s.
There will also be a Fun Race for all types of boats including SUPs.
Racing will start at 11 am (Geoff Sanders Trophy at 12:15)
We paddle in club tee-shirts or vests if possible but the correct colour tee-shirt is ok!
