Story

In the Summer of 2017 my mother in law spent her last few
weeks at St Catherine’s Hospice where they gave her the care and attention she needed before she sadly passed away. 

I’m an indoor rower and race at 500m on a Concept2 rowing machine. A couple year ago a did a half marathon row for Cancer
research and wasn’t a great fan of doing the longer row but did it any way as it raised over £1,000. I decided this year to row from Preston to Lands Ends for St Catherine's to hopefully raise £2,000. This would have been approximately 20Km per day every day throughout May as the plan was to complete it during the month of May. However, after a few days rowing I decided to changed the target to 1,000Km instead to make it much more challenging as I would now need to row approximately 33Km per day everyday. I'm planning on doing this while working full time and also supporting my family etc.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
