Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our Just Giving page.

As a Team of Stand Up Paddleboarders we have been invited to participate in the first Grand Union Canal Endurance Challenge - Where we will SUP alongside Runners and Walkers from London to Bletchley in 24 hours (or less).


Paddling or walking continuously for 62 miles is a tough enough by itself and in addition to this, we will also have the added challenge of having to negotiate 65 Locks along the way, carrying our boards around each of them. Whilst we will be testing our bodies to the limits, we would like to take this opportunity to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support a charity very close to one of the Team members heart at this present time.

Thank you for your support!

Stacey, Phil, Jan & Renee
