Does anyone know if ranked in div 6 k2 but not ranked in k1 do you have to do the long course or the short course??
Definately don't fancy the long course!
Thanks,

Your marathon ranking is your marathon ranking whether you got it in k1 or k2.
The paddle section is only slightly longer the SHP hsler course so that shouldn't be any challenge for you - its just the 4km run but it'snot that far really! You know you want to do it!
