Cambridge Winter Head, Mich Term 2003

1st men's novice VIII (Novice VIIIs)

Coxed by: Dilini Nanayakkara

8th in Novice VIIIs - 2nd of the 5 cambridge college crews
Time: 11:44
For a first race this was a different experience, not only with us being entirely confused about when the race actually started but how to pass traffic etc. We therefore hit it hard from as soon as we realised we had actually started racing and never really stopped. The traffic in grassy was well met by a novel line from Dilini, and until the last 300m everything seemed to be running smoothly. At this point we tried to bring her home too hard, resulting in a caught crab and untidy catches. Overall though an exciting first race. (A.J.P. Dewbery)
