Eddies women win again!

Fresh off the back of their HEddies victory at Head of the Cam our Eddie's Eagles had their sights set on winning another pot at City's Spring Head to Head race! 2km downstream followed by 2km upstream is a daunting task but our fearless stroke, Sophie, powered on at an unrelenting r30 ensuring that we positively flew downstream with an average split of 1:56! Coach Matt said we didn't look tired enough at the finish line and that he wanted us to make sure we properly put ourselves in the bin on the way back....and we certainly did! A call of 500m to go had us all pushing for that last ounce of energy....after a distance of somewhat more than 500m we finally went under the railway bridge - with many of us wondering where on earth the second part of the railway bridge was and where the heck is that blooming hooter to signal the finish!!!!! The Eagles did Matt proud and were well and truly IN-THE-BIN!!

As it turns out...thanks so Matt's wonderful advice we WON our category beating Tit Hall by 0.5 seconds!!!! All in all a wonderful day and another confidence boost as our training ramps up the closer we get to that all important May Bumps week!
