Hilary’s 100 mile indoor rowing challenge in aid of the Centre raises £762.50.

Hilary Birkinshaw, one of our members and our Treasurer on our Trustee Board, completed an amazing 100 mile rowing challenge at the weekend, all in aid of the Centre. Thanks so much Hilary for taking on this challenge. Her own words are below.

I did it!! 

Last Saturday I not only reached my 100 mile rowing target (103 to be precise) but did the last 26 miles all in one day. My final marathon distance took 8 1/4 hours, 2.5 km every half hour so approximately 15 mins on and 15 mins rest. A total of 4.5 hours rowing. As you might expect the first half was ok and the second half less so …. All in all, pretty pleased with myself 😀
