2025 for a tough but exciting event of tight racing. The headwinds were strong and the flow low but all categories produced impressive racing and tight margins. For full results from the race, please visit their site here.
NOTE – We are awaiting the senior team results to be confirmed so the below graphic only shows the main results.
We are now just over a week to go until the 2025 edition of Short Course Nationals in Peterborough and the start lists are heating up.
We are excited to announce that Precision Fuel & Hydration are sponsoring the event with podium prizes for all races and positions. Winners of every races will get a £25 PF&H Giftcard, a bottle, a hat or over eighteens will also receive a PH1500 tube. Second and third place in each race will win a bottle, hat and over eighteens will also receive a PH1500 tube too.
This also included our amazing senior and teams trophies. Our four senior trophies were created under James Symthe’s name and are unique trophies designed specifically for this event and for athletes to take away with them for the year. Who do you think will win them this year?
Standard entries for the event officially close at midnight on Sunday 27th April, with late entries only being accepted until midnight on Tuesday 29th April. We urgently need entries to make the Men and Women Canoe races, the Senior Women Kayak races, the Veteran Women Kayak races and both the Men and Women Para races a little more exciting. Remember for categories need to have 15 entries or more to enable the race to be split into heats!
Race briefing and timetable will be confirmed next week but will follow a similar schedule from last year of the veteran men kayak races kicking off the schedule in the morning.
We look forward to seeing lots of you there!
The Marathon Racing Committee would like to wish all competitors racing in the 2025 edition of the Devizes to Westminster Canoe Race the best of luck. Have a safe and enjoyable (?) race to whichever finish line in your aim.
We would also like to thank all the volunteers (directors, committee, marshals and more) out on the course over the next few days. Without you, these events could not happen.
There is a variety of coverage happening over the next four days as the straight through crews, juniors and stages compete and you can follow their progress in a variety of ways.
The official DW organisation channels include the following:
PaddleDaily, an independent paddling media company, will also be following the race through their channels. They might also be providing some live stream footage of the senior doubles race for us. You can find their channels below.
We look forward to following along ourselves!
