Alex Adie and Nikki Mocké dominated the two-day Breede River Canoe Marathon that decided the SA K2 River Marathon title on the weekend.
The two crossed the finish at Kambati Resort outside Swellendam holding a comfortable near-ten minutes advantage over Kirsten Penderis and Olympic sprint medallist Bridgitte Hartley.
Robyn Henderson and Bianca Beavitt wrapped up the last spot on the women’s podium.
A big field enjoyed superb warm weather on a river that contrasted sharply with the 600 cumec flood that moved through the valley last weekend. Then river continued to drop steadily over the weekend to a 30 cumec level at the start in Robertson on Saturday morning.
