In practice for the major event Ben & Mark have decided to row the English Channel both ways, from Weymouth to Cherbourg in France. This has never been done before and would be a world record when they do it. The distance to row is 160 miles and will take up to 40 hours to complete.

The Challenge

The challenge is for your team of 10 to race Ben & Mark across the Channel whilst raising money for Caudwell Children. That is 160 miles on rowing machines, all times will be added together to see who the winner will be. The winner will be announced on the 1st December and the winning team will have their gyms logo and town put on to the boat. The winner will be decided after the deadline of 28th November when all funds raised need to be in by. The winner will be decided on funds raised and rowing time.
