Boston Rowing Marathon · 5 September 2007

Diabetes UK is the charity leading the fight against the UK's devastating and fastest growing health crisis, working to create a world where diabetes can do no harm. It’s a fight that involves all of us – sharing knowledge and taking diabetes on together. Join us.

Story

On Sunday 16th September 16 rowers and 2 coxes (and 2 boats) from the X-Press Boat Club are taking on the Boston Rowing Marathon.

50km (31 miles) in around 4 pain filled hours.

The marathon follows the River Witham from Lincoln and finishes in Boston. Deviating from this route is not advisable for obvious reasons.

For added fun there's a lock midway over which we have to carry the boats.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Diabetes UK will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
