Worcester Head of River
Saturday 21 February 2009
The course is 6 km downstream. We had three crews entered in the Head. Our S2 4- crew was Ben Rodford; Dan Braun; Tim Barnett and Rich Woods. The VETD 4- crew consisted of Jon Garner; Andy Jones; Martin Jones and Russell Thornton. The third crew was entered in J18 4X and was made up of Ben Marshal; Dave Pollard; Sam Thornton and Lyndon Cook.
However all three crews were put into S2 4- with Toby Venn replacing Ben Marshal from the J18 Crew. Gloucester produced an excellent result. Ben Rodford's crew won the event with a time of 18mins 54 secs. Lyndon Cook's crew did exceptionally well to take second place with a time of 19mins 36secs. To round things off our Vet D crew made it a clean sweep to take third place with a time of 19mins 58secs.
All three of our crews beat the local Worcester S2 4- crew which came in fourth place with a time of 20mins 9secs.
