1000 meter, 5 mile and 10 mile virtual race - new web site is open!
The new web site for the virtual race is open and waiting for race entries. The idea is to paddle the race distance, record your results by GPS and submit data for posting. In addition to the race data, you are welcome to submit any information about yourself, your paddling, training and racing.
Everybody is invited to race! Solo, tandems or adventure racer teams. Kayaks or canoes. Any paddling boats and paddlers of all skill levels. You can submit as many entries as you wish to show your progress. I think that, especially, interesting are entries from the same paddler racing different boats or the same boat under different conditions, using different paddles, etc. There are two marathon distances, 5 and 10 miles, and 1000 meter sprint race. The race results are posted separately for the cruisers with the average speed below 6 mph, and, for the racers with the speed above 6 mph. This is the third year of the virtual race. The entries include touring and sea kayaks, multisport kayaks, specialized racing kayaks like WSBS Thunderbolt or Nelo Razor, surfski, sprint K1, and not so many canoes. No tandem boats yet. |
