The 100 Toughest Races in the World
#95
Devizes to Westminster
Description
The Devizes to Westminster International Canoe Race is the longest non-stop canoe race in the world. It starts in the quiet market town of Devizes in Wiltshire and finishes 125 miles later at Westminster Bridge, directly opposite the Houses of Parliament in the heart of London. It is held over the Easter weekend each year and has been a fixture in the British sporting calendar since 1950. But DW is much more than just a canoe race - it's an adventure! It forces competitors to dig long and deep into their reserves of physical and mental stamina which is why the race is often called "the canoeists' Everest". Having the technical skill to paddle a kayak or canoe is essential but the most important quality needed to complete DW is raw determination
