CHRISTY Job, of Wallingford RC, made her annual pilgrimage to Lincolnshire to contest the 50km Lincoln to Boston Marathon in her single scull and, yet again, returned triumphant.
Racing in a younger age category in search of opposition, Job won the Masters A event in a record time of 4hrs 15mins.
In an astonishing achievement, she was also declared the fastest female sculler by a margin of almost ten minutes.
