September 23rd, 2018 was the first time a SUP race has gone straight
through central London, where the racers competed along an iconic
15.5km stretch of the Thames, beginning in Putney, start of the
London Boat race, they passed by most of London’s landmarks before
they finished in Shadwell – 3km after Tower Bridge.
SUP Mag UK were handily located on the press launch alongside Sarah and Antony
Thornely from Supjunkie to capture the full race. Sarah ran a live transmission of the
race through Facebook and conducted extensive interviews with many of the people
concerned that can be viewed at: www.supjunkie.co.uk
