oh my god well me, my dad and two friends have just got home from completing the most disgustingly painful event in the entire world.

The Cheshire Ring Kayak Race

96 miles to paddle around the cheshire ring canal in manchester.

92 locks and 4 tunnels to walk around (with the kayak!)

24 hours (well we did it in 25 hours 2 minutes and 21 seconds)

4 man relay in a K2 tourer kayak (2 men at a time paddling)

we had only ever been in a kayak the week before for a couple of hours practice.

our support team were so awesome driving the other members to the next checkpiints for the change over and keeping the team fed and watered.

soooooooooo knackered now!!!!!!!! but oh so proud we managed it!

anyway we won our class!! woop woop
