 Stroketember Challenge

In the month of September we as a club are going to see if we can paddle around the world (40,075 km's). There are 30 days in September so we need 1336 km's per day which could be 134 people paddling 10km's per day.

The world Steptember campaign is running in September too, where people walk/run 10,000 steps per day. It would only be right that we paddle 10,000m per day! If you are in a level 4 class expect to reach up to 9500m in your class, level 3 classes can reach up to 7500m and level 1/2 classes up to 6500m. This means before or after each class we need to do a bit more!

We start in Sydney and paddle across the Pacific ocean in an Easterly direction with the first stop New Zealand.

Use your real name or make up a funny name and record your paddles every week on a free Strava account by syncing your watch or manually adding your entries into Strava and help us achieve this mammoth task.

Club Champs 
Race 4  - Rose Bay Clubhouse 

Club Champs is so much fun! We have 6 x Club event races for the year and we take your best 3 results to see who are the Club Champs in each gender and age group. Each event is 10km and the course is picked the day before for best conditions. 

The first race you do, you cant win. We gather your moving time and the next races you do you receive a handicap start time based off your moving time. We then have a race where we know everyones moving time and we handicap everyone so that the entire field finish with a 100m sprint at the end. 

We laugh and support each other with everyone enjoying the cafe hangout afterwards. Each event you can see your progression versus yourself and others. 

We encourage you to come and have a go!
