Story
As most people will be aware in 2018, we took part in the challenge to climb to Everest Basecamp and Kala Patthar for the Steve Prescott Foundation. We now feel we’ve mentioned it so many times to people that we need a new adventure to start that process all over again. What better way than by taking on ‘Challenge Wembley’ to do some more fund raising for this great charity, helping multiple causes from the Christie to the Oxford transplant centre.
We will be joining a great team of people cycling over 900 miles across France, rowing 27 miles along the River Thames and completing a half marathon. The challenge will be completed over 13 consecutive days cumulating delivering the match ball Wembley Stadium for the challenge cup final.
Considering neither of us have ever been on a road bike or in a dragon boat before this will be no mean feat.
