Peterborough VIRTUAL Regatta

Event Date: Saturday 13th August 2022 - Sunday 14th August 2022

Our 2022 Summer Regatta may have been cancelled (see our event page for details), but that doesn’t stop us having a competition between crews, so we’ve taken all the entries and gone virtual!

Through partnership with RaceLeader, we have created two virtual competitions using the original entry data from the Peterborough Summer Regatta (even the crews who were rejected due to capacity). We are keeping the planned 1,000m Saturday and 500m Sunday race distances, although appreciate not everyone has access to this much water.

How to compete,

  1. Head out on your local stretch of water, in the original crew you had entered for our Summer Regatta
  2. Track your entire outing using GPS, and get it on Strava (only one person in the crew needs to do this)
  3. During your outing, do a 1,000m and/or 500m piece (depending on which you originally entered)
  4. Visit www.RaceLeader.co.uk/PetSum22, find your crew and upload your Strava activity against it (if you have any issues, please contact info@raceleader.co.uk)

The RaceLeader system automatically analyses your activity, extracts the fastest section (either 1,000m/500m) and displays it in the public results, with Masters handicaps being applied automatically.

This may not be the Summer Regatta we all wanted, but it will bring us rowers together as a community across the country, and help retain some of that competitive spirit towards the close of season.

Crews have until 18:00 on Sunday 14 to submit results. It’s completely free to take part, no BROE CRI points will be gained, and a prestigious 1st place ranking on the leaderboard is at stake.

Please help us spread the word as this virtual competition is being organised very last minute by a very limited number of individuals. It is only available to those who entered our Summer Regatta, we will not be accepting entries on the day.

Thanks
