M2 Lents 2016: Days 1/2

The M2 campaign campaign got off to a storming start on day one. Starting at 4th station and chasing Churchill 2, we got the first whistle after ten strokes, rapidly followed by two whistle, three wistles, and the bump on first post corner. We went in to day two on a high, but with the knowledge that it would be much tougher chasing Eddie's 1. The race got off to a tense start, with all the crews around us staying roughly on station. At grassy Eddie's finally caught up to Emma 2 and bumped out, shortly followed by Hughes Hall catching Churchill behind us, leaving us nothing to do but row over, steadily pushing Clare Hall (started 3 stations behind) into the distance down the reach. Day 3 looks set to be exciting with us starting again on station 3, rowing between Emma and Hughes.
