"SYC is teaming up with on-board exercise specialists Gym Marine to bring you the first of a series of fund-raising challenges.  We are going to span the gap between our two COVID-cancelled events in Southampton and Palma in a team relay format by Running, Rowing and Riding.  To make this possible, we will need to use gym equipment and this is where Gym Marine are more than just a sponsor.  We will use their Broad St, Bath HQ as our base of operations, with some team members working out at home and others basing themselves at Gym Marine for the duration.  In the final hours the whole team will converge on Gym Marine to cross the virtual finish line together.  All distances will be logged hourly onto the exercise app Strava and the whole event will be live streamed on Facebook.


We aim to raise a minimum of £500 per team member and complete the challenge in under 30 hours.  The distances for each discipline are as follows:


Running: Southampton to Dover – 143 Miles
Rowing: Cross Channel + Barcelona to Mallorca – 150 miles
Riding: France, Spain & Mallorca land portions – 828 miles"


Ken Hickling joins us to explain a little further in detail and offers up the challenge to others to join in! For more information on this fun and fit fundraiser, click on the link and see how you can be part of it!
