The WEHoRR Committee would like to thank the organising committee of the Head of the River Race for their generous offer to enable a division of women’s crews to take part in a time trial over the Championship Course as the final division of their race on Saturday 30th March.
Due to marshalling restrictions and the need to clear the course before the end of the designated PLA river closure, the number of crews allowed to participate is limited and we are unfortunately only able to open the invitation to the crews who featured in the amended draw published last Thursday. These crews will receive an email containing further information. There is no expectation that crews will take up this offer, but it exists for those without other plans who may wish to take advantage.
Please note that this is not a replacement for the original 2019 race and crews will race solely for time within the HORR. All rules, safety and marshalling instructions will be controlled by the HORR. No WEHoRR Pennants will be awarded based on these results, however athletes will be awarded PRI according to their finishing position. Results will be published to our Facebook page.
For clarity, as this is not a replacement race, the start order for the top 50 crews in the 2020 Women’s Head will be based on the finishing positions from the 2018 race.
