Each year, Macmillan Cancer Support (Jersey) encourages Islanders to make a New Year’s fitness resolution and ‘pull together’ for its annual indoor Rowathon. Macmillan Jersey’s Rowathon involves teams of six rowers rowing the equivalent distance from Jersey to Sark (30,000m) on an indoor rowing machine. This year, 59 teams took part, raising in excess of £40,000 for the charity.
Next year’s Rowathon will take place on 14th April at Les Ormes. Teams can enter the 9am or 1pm sitting.
Entry Fee: minimum £360 sponsorship commitment per team
Junior Entry: minimum £60 sponsorship commitment per team
Race Distance: 30,000m – equivalent of Sark to Jersey
Teams: 6 rowers to row 5 x 1,000m each – can be men, women or mixed (3 men / 3 women)
This year’s Rowathon is now full. If you’d like to be put on a waiting list to see if any teams become available, please email Michelle : mparker@macmillanjersey.com
