Cambridge rowers training VERY early in the morning

Ahead of the historic Boat Race, which will see women row for the first time on the iconic Thames Tideway course alongside their male counterparts, Cambridge athletes train at Ely. Go light blues!

Cambridge and Oxford compete on the Thames for dominance in the annual Boat Races with women crews to take on the course for the first time.
The Boat Races this weekend will see history made as both the BNY Mellon Boat Race and the Newton Women’s Boat Race take place on the Thames Tideway course for the first time.
With thousands of spectators on the banks and millions watching on Television the races are a major event in the world sporting calendar.
The first men’s race was in 1829, becoming an annual race in 1856, but the women’s race did not start until 1927 and it is only this year that women take on the same course as the men.
Racing on the Tideway is a major landmark in the history of women’s rowing at Cambridge.
