Well I made it in just under 63 hours. What can I say ?? What a crazy crazy race. It's a few days on now and I still feel a little dazed and confused by the enormonity of that paddle.

Firstly I would like to thank Catherine for looking after me during and after the race and having to put up with all the training and constant talk of this event for the last 6 months. You are my angel love you xx

I would also like to thank all the board of the Yukon River Quest for allowing us this opportunity, and all the volunteers for keeping us safe thanks so so much !

All the new friends we have made who have helped us out and just made the trip even more special !

All the paddlers what an amazing inspirational group of people you are.
And Canada for being such a beautiful friendly amazing place ! We will be back !!
