On Paddlecast, hosts Betsy and Billy talk to paddlers who are pushing the limits. Paddlers who are pushing their own limits, and pushing the limits of paddlesports. Paddlecast was started by SUP Racer founder Chris Parker in 2020. Since then, Betsy took over SUP Racer from Chris and founded Paddler Media, which provides independent media coverage of not only SUP racing but also canoe and kayak racing including marathon, sprint, and ultra distance racing.

Thames 200 Ultra Race Preview: Top Contenders & Racer Interviews

The Thames 200 Ultra, one of the most accessible and action-packed ultra paddling races in the world, starts Saturday. After its inaugural year in 2024, this year has more paddlers, more relay teams, and tighter racing!

Betsy and Billy preview this epic race in full – what makes it unique, why so many top end marathon paddlers are racing, who the most likely category winners are, and where to expect the tightest racing.

Several of the event’s strongest racers joined this episode to talk about why they’re racing, what could be the most difficult parts of the race, and what they’re most excited about. Special thanks to Michael Rees-Clark, Brynde Kreft, Isaac Blackman, Harry Gilbert, Adrian Angell, and the Barbarians C4 team including Tom Barnard and Maria Fisher.

Follow all the action this weekend LIVE on Paddler Media YouTube and the Paddle Daily social media accounts.
