![](https://canoemarathon.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/1-1-1.png)
This weekend sees Reading play host to the biggest annual canoe marathon event in the country. We are super excited to see some tight racing and who manages to claim (or reclaim!) national championship titles.
Whether you are a member of the canoe marathon community or someone who has never watched canoe marathon before, there are lots of ways you can follow along with all the action over both days of racing.
In Person and Locally
If you are local to Reading, head down The Thames Promenade (RG1 8BD) from 9am on Saturday 13th or 8:30am on Sunday 14th to catch some racing in person. There will be commentary, food stands, trade stands, starts, finishes and one of the two portages taking place in this location so lots of action to watch! Racing will typically finish around 4:30pm each day. A particular highlight will be the Mixed K2 (2-person Kayak) race on Sunday starting at 3:30pm. Check out some of the links below for further information.
