Scullers Head 2010 - 3rd in IM3 lightweight category

Scullers Head.  Getting better each year, in 2009 came 13th in 2010 came 3rd.  I hope in 2011 to do even better.  It's a long race and this time of year cold, but if you get the course right it's a great feeling to be amongst so many scullers on such a wide stretch of river.

Fours Head of the River Race 2010 IM3 Quads

I am the one at the back of the boat.  In charge of steering the course and giving the calls.  Being the smallist in the boat I had to work the hardest to be there in that seat.  Grey cold winters day but a fast race time.

Pairs Head of the River Race 2010 - 4th place Mixed Double Sculls



Doing the Pairs Head with my partner Joe Lackner.  Now what you need to understand is he is a racing enthusiast, a real animal, absolutely crazy when it's race time there is no holding back, it's racing time!  We came 4th which was a excellent result behind some pretty impressive crews.  His driving force at stroke and my skill at bow was a great combination that works well.

Weybridge Silver Sculls 2010 - Winner



Weybridge Silver Sculls, a winter Head I really love to do.  My rowing hero Tim Crooks holds the record here and to compete and win was fantastic.  Single sculling is a though game but if you win very rewarding.

Women Henley - Quarter finalist 2010

A hard race this one.  I learnt a lot, even when you are behind, you are only a loser if you give up trying.  Lesson learnt.  Great start to my single sculling at Henley
