Lent Bumps Day 3 W1

On our third day of bumps, W1 was really excited. Having the best outcome possible the two previous day, a row over at the top of division two followed by a really quick bump of Selwyn W1 on day two, we were all very optimistic about the forthcoming race.
After being photographed a ridiculous number of the times by Ola, the final canon went off. We pushed hard and it paid off. Very quickly we heard our first whistle. Obviously from this we were encouraged to push even harder, so not long after that we got 2 whistles, meaning only half a length away now.

Pushing through the pain, we did some push for tens, clearly paying off as then we got 3 whistles in a row. Now we knew it was just a matter of time before we would have bumped Magdalene. With Mark counting down the feet to Magdalene and extensive noise from our bank party, we bumped Magdalene very quickly overall. It was great fun, and definitely worth all the hard work! (A video of this awesomeness is available somewhere….)

Now let’s hope our success continues on for the last two days of bumps.
GO MECBC !!!!!!!!!!!
