Brief history of the Boat Race.

The 156th Boat Race takes place on Saturday, April 3, 2010 at 4:30 pm. A quarter-million spectators on the banks of the Thames turn out to watch, plus millions more on television. The race is rowed from Putney to Mortlake.

Cambridge started it all. Charles Merivale, a student at Cambridge, on March 12, 1829, challenged fellow Harrow alumnus Charles Wordsworth (nephew of the poet), who was at Oxford.

Cambridge leads the series, 79 to 75. Oxford won the 2009 Race.
