The University of Essex Rowing club has thrown down the gauntlet to the Parachute Regiment. The challenge is to row as far as possible in 24hrs without stopping. It's a team effort; soldier vs student.

The Challenge will take place on Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th December right in the heart of Colchester Town. Feel free to pop along and cheer us on - it's going to be a long 24hrs.

Our chosen charities are: The Parachute Regiment, Combat Stress, University of Essex Student Union & The Rotary Club of Colchester. Take your pick.
