Monika is competing in the single sculls at the World Coastal Rowing Championships on Sat 24th October. They are being held in Plymouth, UK. For more info check out: http://www.worldoffshorerowingchampionships2009.com/. The race is over 8kms in open sea and capsizing is not unheard off, so is not for the faint hearted!

We qualified for the finals of the u12 girls, vet ladies, u12 mixed, senior mixed, u14 girls, u16 boys, u16 ladies, pre vet ladies, u18 ladies, u18 boys and the intermediate ladies. I had to leave the regatta after this so not sure how the last few heats went.
