Story

We are delighted that you have taken a moment or two to find out what we are doing and why. Everyone has been affected by Cancer in some way, be it having lost a relative or a friend or knowing somebody that has cancer.

The journey will be starting at the first navigatable point of the Thames in Cricklade early Friday morning, by Kayak we will travel 37.79 miles to Eynsham. Following a short pit stop we will don our running shoes for the first of our runs, a 7.53 mile run to Iffley Lock. Another change in transport here as we channel our inner Bradley Wiggins and pedal our way down to Shiplake Lock, just a swift 42.91 miles in the saddle (HELP!). If you haven't got bored as yet we are now around 16/18 hours into the challenge, we will once again get our running shoes on, running a further 7.54 miles through the wonderful Henley-on-Thames. As the Sun rises on Saturday 22nd June, you may be in bed, with a coffee and bacon sandwich, but please spare a thought for us, we will be getting back on the water to complete our final leg of the journey. A grueling 38.9 mile Kayak just upstream from Marlow, all the way down to Kingston.

We would love to hear from you, any messages of support, or to call us a bunch of idiots! The team are really excited to get going, and thank you for your continued support!
