First of all, I would like to welcome all the newly elected exec and committe, I am looking forward to seeing what we can achieve together next year. As well as this I would like to say thank you to all the outgoing exec, it is a shame that the season was cut short.

Even though COVID-19 has led to the separation of our athletes, DUBC continues to stay strong. Everyone is managing to train hard at home in preparation for the 20/21 season. Personally, I am excited to see what we can do together next year.

The alumni club, 1877, have recently started an “Around the world in 30 days” challenge in order to fundraise for Mind and the Durham Foodbank. The goal is to accumulate 40,075km of mileage in any way possible and aims to keep people ‘training together’ while apart. The countdown can be found on the 1877 website and there is a Justgiving page coming soon.

The boat club wishes everyone the best in these difficult times,
Jake Lane – DUBC President
