In less than two weeks, my son's school has arranged a sponsored row.
10 crews of 8 people, made up of parents and students, will be rowing 80 miles down the Thames from Radley to Hampton to raise money for charity - the Shooting Star Children's Hospices who do incredible work helping children and young adults - https://www.shootingstar.org.uk/
Depending on boat speed, thats roughly 12 hours a day in the seat on both Saturday and Sunday.
One of the parent crews includes yours truly.
One of the student crews includes my son.
Yep, it will be Father vs Son racing.
In my more humorous moments, I like to think it might be a little competitive, but in truth, the lads will fly past us!
We’d love your support for this good cause.
