Matthew Harvey
The Thames Paddle
Fundraising for Just One Ocean
Story
On the 28th of May 2021 I will be starting my Offical World Record attempt to solo kayak/canoe the length of the River Thames!
I have been sitting on this idea for a while now and after a few set backs curtesy of Covid, we are ready to go!
I am aiming to complete the 200km paddle in around 60 hours whilst following strict guidelines set by @guinnessworldrecords along with video/photographic evidence, GPS tracking from @garmin and completing a logbook/witness logbook.
I will be fundraising for @justoneocean who do amazing work to protect our oceans. Any donations are much appreciated big or small!
