Biography
Hi I'm Georgie, I'm 22 and I live in Leeds (UK) with my Mum, Dad and dog Frank!
3 months ago I lucky enough to be selected a place on the GB Start Program in York which enables me to train full time so I can fufull my dream of rowing at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020. I train 3 times a day with few rest days and I am determined to make it to the GB senior team in the near future. Although I have only been training in the programme in York for short time I have already made massive improvements on the water, in the gym and on the dreaded ergo machine with some gold medal targets already met and which I will continue to meet.
Unfortunately training full time leaves me with little time to get a job in order to fund my rowing journey, so I am asking for your help to help me along my Olympic path. Here's a few examples of the costs that rowing involves;
Fuel for my car to get to rowing: £50 a week - 400miles travelled per week.
Food and nutrition: £100 per week - as a rower I consume 6000+ per day to fuel my training
