Barrow Blitz 2026 is in the history books.
What a great day on the river, so many adventures had by everyone!
We had 2 new course records in the male & female catagories and plenty of personal bests on the day!
Perfect conditions to do a 51km Decent of the Barrow!
This event has run 4 times and for the first time ever everyone who took to the start line completed the challenge! Amazing!!!
A couple of thank yous to go out. To Philip, Jenny & Yvonne for taking care of the start/finish lines, checkpoints, and participant support, this event is small but takes a lot to run it smoothly and this team make it happen! 🤘🤘
To for the finishline support, welcoming all our paddlers into Graig!
To for the use of their finish banner!
Massive shout out to Darren from for supporting the event by making the amazing finishers medals and numbers!
To my wife Lynn for supporting me so I could focus on delivering the event in the run up to it!
To all the support crews, friends & family of the participants that took photo's, encouraged and cheered on everyone all day!
It's all those mentioned above and many more that make this event while small in participants, mighty in stature!
See you all for the extra special 5th Barrow Blitz in 2027
