February 13th 2008 was that first event in the JMC Vs Ribby Hall Decathlon Challenge.  11 rowers from each team were pitted against each other in a 1000m timed row.

Following a close battle Ribby Hall was victorious with a combined score of 40mins 11.5seconds against Team JMC’s 42mins 49.5seconds.  The next event planned is a Tenpin Bowling Challenge.  Keep watching this space to see if Team JMC are able to even out the scores.
