€20,563 – We are just back to 1/3 of our original funds raised when nine of us rowed in the 2022 Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge, the toughest rowing race in the world. This week was a shock for us, a software error caused our funds raised to be refunded. (1)

We won a World record for fastest 5-man rowing team to cross the Atlantic, & we bumped up the numbers of Irish people who have rowed the Atlantic from 19 to 28 so we are devastated as you can imagine. Please re-donate as soon as possible through https://t.co/625eE26sUe (2)

[RowHardorGoHome @RowHardRgoHome]

Funding UPDATE: 21 Feb @gofundme told us a software error caused refunds to donors accounts. Unfortunately it could not be reversed. You will get an email from @gofundme in the next 24hrs. Thankfully no money has been lost. Please re-donate, thank you. https://t.co/kPbUNpcI95

The team bumped into Bono & Edge of @U2 in Antigua! An amazing inspirational pair, down to earth & engaged with the lads recent feat! Bono knew all about us as his wife Ali had been following the race. @Gearoidobriain's son was sleeping but Bono ensured he wasn't left out!

Both our teams want to give a big shout-out to fellow Irishman @jamiie00 due to arrive in Antigua tomorrow. In addition to this challenge of rowing solo across the Atlantic, Jamie completed the @marathonsables in 2022 as part of his @NVCampaign2022 Well done Jamie! #twac2022

Amazing stuff from @RowHardRgoHome 5 who've set a new #WorldRecord whilst raising funds for us & @LauraLynnHouse.

They've set a new record for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic by a team of five rowers - 33 days, 2 hours & 38 minutes.
