You need to consider your build up, managing your physical and mental states throughout the race, and recovery. These are great events to practice these skills or try new things.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10km races can be very tactical and to race well, you need a good mix of skills from start speed, endurance, race strategy, and practical boat skills such as wash riding, paddling in a bunch and tight turns. Regularly competing is a good way to build and develop these. These skills will transfer across to whatever type of paddling you do.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether looking to build up your fitness and endurance, or build up your speed, these races can help with both.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 10km can be done at max effort and this could give you a rough gauge of your threshold speed for future threshold training sessions or it could be done at L2 pace and used to build your aerobic capacity.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>What to expect from these adrenaline fuelled races<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Races are typically held on flat-water venues so conditions are unlikely to be extreme, so achievable for most paddlers and craft.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The start line of a distance race is always a little anxiety-inducing with close positioning of all the racers and slight uncertainty as to when the start signal will be heard. From then, it is a good sprint to get into position and stay out of trouble. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then comes some decision making\u2026go it alone or stay in a pack? Take the leads or wash ride in the group, go hard or save energy for the end? Positioning coming into turns is also critical. If you are on the inside of the turn, will the person whose wash you are riding give you space or try and squeeze you into the turn buoy? <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These races can often be quite social, as you can work with other paddlers to share the load and conserve energy, similar to a cycling peloton.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4052 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/2020-NZ-10KM-CHAMPS-1024x648.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/2020-NZ-10KM-CHAMPS-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/2020-NZ-10KM-CHAMPS-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/2020-NZ-10KM-CHAMPS-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/2020-NZ-10KM-CHAMPS.jpg 1517w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><b>When are the Kayak Krazy races?<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are over 10 club-run races happening across the country from July -September, with the CRNZ 10km Champs serving as a spectacular finale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-race-1\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jul 22 &#8211; Wellington, Mana Kayak Racing Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-race-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aug 06 &#8211; Christchurch, Arawa Canoe Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-hawkes-bay\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aug 12 &#8211; Hawke&#8217;s Bay, Hawkes Bay Kayak Racing Club inc<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-north-shore\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aug 19 &#8211; Auckland, North Shore Canoe Club Inc.<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-karapiro\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aug 27 &#8211; Lake Karapiro, Karapiro Kayak Racing Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-bay-of-plenty\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sep 03 &#8211; Tauranga, Bay of Plenty Paddle Sports<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-waitara\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sep 09 &#8211; Taranaki, Waitara Kayak Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-mana-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sep 16 &#8211; Kapiti Coast, Mana Kayak Racing Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-waitemata\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sep 17 &#8211; Auckland, Waitemata Canoe and Multisport Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10k-series-race10\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sep 23 &#8211; Christchurch, Arawa Canoe Club<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/events\/kayak-krazy-10km-championships-rotorua\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sept 30 &#8211; CRNZ 10km Champs, Lake Okareka, Rotorua<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Who are the races for?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any paddlers from 12 &amp; Under up to Masters &#8211; for serious racers to fun seekers &#8211; these club races offer something for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Races are open to Kayaks (K1), Multi-craft boats (includes ocean ski, surf ski, multisport boats and sea kayaks) and team boats (please note, team boats are not eligible for series points).
