Lent Bumps Getting-on Race 2025

3rd men's VIII

Coxed by: Eleanor Bakewell

Got on
Time: 8:07
An interesting arrangement with the cox becoming stroke seat and the coach coxing but it worked and they got on - our first M3 to do so since 2022.
I may have lost George's slider on the way home but in my defence I did find it again behind Combined while leaving with M4.
Alex W, myself and Zara all timed the race to the same figure to within a tenth of a second which we are all proud of.

'Twas the day of the Getting On Race.
Our new stroke set a challenging pace.
We did not row our best,
But we passed this first test,
And left Corpus M2 in their place.
(Nick Nelson)
Our rowing was down in the dumps;
No power — a boat-load of chumps.
Our cox became stroke,
New cox was our coach,
But at least we got on to Bumps!
