Pulborough resident Pip Jennings of the REAL Boat Race Crew, recently rowed a marathon at Pulborough RFC to raise funds for the children’s charity, Ickle Pickle.
This was in preparation for May’s 500 mile boat race from London to Paris. On February 2, each participant rowed 42,195 metres from 11.30am to 3.45pm.
