Masters women @ Petrie Beach Sprints

ICYMI, the organizer Kate wants to know if we want to make a Masters Women's 1x category vs Open Women's for Saturday. Biggest Canadian Beach Sprint event ever!!


As we look ahead to Saturday’s racing, we have a significant number of Masters-eligible athletes entered in the Open Women’s 1x. This is very exciting, as we have never had more than a couple of masters athletes race at any given RowOn Beach Sprints event!


With that, we are trying to find a balance between quality racing, an efficient race schedule, and the overall participant experience, we are gauging interest in a Masters W1x event. If there are enough women interested in racing in a standalone Masters event, instead of the Open Women’s 1x, we will split that event.


If we offer a Masters Women’s Solo, we will use modified age adjustments (0.5 of the Henley Masters Age Adjustments, to reflect the shorter race distance).


Please let me know ASAP if you would like your entry to be transferred to a Masters 1x event.

I’m game for Masters if others are. Otherwise, fine with Open (just keep in mind Open can = racing against people 20+ years younger!)
