Course outline in 2025
See the course info sheet from 2025 for more information on what we did last year, The courses in 2026 will be similar but not exactly the same.
Advice on clothing
Make sure you bring sports clothing (indoor and outdoor, not too baggy - thin layers are best), trainers and (a must) wellies, sandals, or wet shoes. Don't bring anything too precious - things can get a bit dirty or quite wet very easily. Hoodies or jackets with open pockets are not allowed when rowing or on the rowing machines, as thumbs can get caught (painfully). A full change of clothing including a towel is srongly advised.
