Rowing on the towpath station.
Scrappy rowing in the first half of the race, but held level, perhaps gaining a very slight lead on the opposition. We then both failed to take the gentle bend in the reach. For me this meant finishing on meadow station, for my opposition this meant meeting the bank, effectively ending the race.

Derek has been sculling a while and I knew he would take me off the start. I was about a length down, moving onto rhythm and starting to look to take some ground back when a steering misjudgement meant my blade clipped the towpath side effectively ending my chances.
There was little in the margin in the final and I am fairly gutted that I went out without participating in any close races.
