When Karen decided this was a challenge she wanted to undertake, she then had to find a team.
When she found out that the Regatta had never had an all women crew compete in the Challenge before, her decision was made, she would put together an all women crew!
So where would she find these women?
Karen is a frequent business networker, and a strong supporter of women in business, so during her 1 minute presentations at networking events she went about recruiting the team.
Lots of women wanted to get involved, but holidays, half marathons, the London to Paris cycle race meant some people could not commit to the demanding training schedule.
But within weeks the Crew began to form:
Andrea Williams
Jo Brown
Natalie Holliday
Nina Gurney
Penny Edwards
Sarah Ducker
Sylvia Baldock
Philippa Taylor - Sub
