British Indoor Rowing Championships 2006 medallists list
Published online 12th November 2006

Note: In previous years the Rowing Service has done a live online commentary. With race reports now going up on the Concept 2 website throughout racing, the live online commentary is a bit redundant. Instead it seems useful to maintain an ongoing list of medallists (below) which is being updated during the day. At the foot of each event is a link directly to C2's results page for that race, from which you can get splits and race data. You can also retrieve these from the main C2 results page for 2006, which is being steadily updated.
