The programme will include a timed practice run the 2nd, with the classic race to be held on the 3rd.

The Rapid Sprint Course will commence at "B Start" below Tennis Court rapid, and end following Cork Screw II. It is intended to run the classic race over the tennis court rapid if there is sufficient water levels. If not, the race will commence below the rapid and end at in the straight following "hay stack way". The course duration will be approx. 11mins for men's K1.
