Rowing with an Olympic medallist
Having successfully bid on the Buy Once Give Twice website for a chance to row with Olympic Silver Medallist Guin Batten, Lucy Burgess took to the water at Henley on the 1 September.
Lucy said: “I had a fantastic time out with Guin! It was a really good experience and I learnt many new things”.
Lucy’s parents applied for the opportunity as a prize for Lucy’s achievements throughout the year. It was also a great opportunity to spend time with an Olympic Medalist and learn what it takes to become a successful athlete.
Lucy began rowing in September 2006 after two successful years of flat water kayaking, and currently rows for Runcorn Rowing Club and owns her own Empacher boat. Having won many events in her single, in July she became Junior14 National Champion.
Guin said: “I was really impressed with Lucy’s technique and if it all goes to plan, we should keep a look out for Lucy in 2016.”
