Like us, you may have thought Ellis and Toby’s 500 mile challenges ended with their 500 mile walk over a year 3 years ago but the boys decided that they ought to do a new one as they had now finished university. They chose to row 500miles over the course of a year for Arthritis UK. I used to love rowing so decided to do the first 50 miles with them. We have done 25 miles so far and are all enjoying ticking off the miles. I might even continue to 100. Initially we are doing one mile a day but they are hoping to increase it to 2 miles a day to complete the challenge in a year. Although we are raising money for Arthritis UK, we would also like to raise some funds for Arthritis Support Leicestershire, which is why we have this page. If you would like to donate to our wonderful charity and support our challenge, that would be amazing.

Over the course of a year, we will be rowing at least a mile a day to reach our goal of 500 miles
