BELGIUM, Europe - The 11th edition of the Namur SUP Race was an amazing success with the highest participation to date. The sun was shining at The Flow Namur and the expected rain held off.
On the women side the top three paddlers rapidly broke the pack. However it was the youngster from Italy, Cecilia Pampinella, that controlled the group for a back to back. The veteran Petronella Van Malsen came in second and was followed by the up and comer from Switzerland, Anna Tschirky in 3rd. A bit far adrift was Frouke Wichgers in 4th with Michala Hendrichova closing the Top 5.
