This Sunday saw the Scouts up bright and early to make an attempt at rowing from Eton Dorney to the Olympic Stadium by way of the Thames. A distance of around 100km, split across 3 teams (2 x Scouts vs. 1 x Leaders).

 

Despite a slightly rocky start, and a late start all 3 teams kicked off, spray flying…

 

2 Hours and 55 minutes later, many had fallen (some of them into the Thames), we made it!

Well done to all the Scouts who gained their Fitness Challenge as a result. Thanks to those who stuck it out an hour beyond what we all expected. And a big Thank You to Harris School for letting us use the equipment and facilities. We couldn’t have done it without you.!
