mywellness challenge club - Row the Atlantic/Channel

Obviously, there's a big difference, but the aim is to get as many of your members to aim for a target and row that distance as a club/chain. This is not about competing, but all members and staff coming together as a team to achieve a common goal; the distance. With Sarah Thomas just swimming the Channel 4 times non-stop, this is a good current news story.

October Rowing Challenge

The Atlantic is 4,263km, the English Channel is 34km. Pick Australia to New Zealand, or Sydney to Hobart, Liverpool to Dublin, or any other local strait, and have all your members contribute to the target.

If you have TG SKILLROWs, set up the details below in the Challenge App, and away you go!

But you can run this with any other rowing machine, just ask members to register their row distance on a whiteboard or clipboard. Take plenty of photos, celebrate the rower(s) who take you past half-way, or through the finish line, and then tell everyone when you've finished, tagging all participants.
