Rachel has booked her flights to Punta Del Este. It’s becoming very real!

You can  keep up to date with the Clipper Race on their official website and follow  on social media (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube). There is also Rachel`s blog .





Rachel has just made a triumphant Clipper Race presentation at work. 50 of her colleagues turned up at lunch time to fill the room, with half having to stand. Using very professional high resolution material provided by Clipper, she held their attention for an hour including questions. It was only supposed to be half an hour! Afterwards, Rachel was congratulated by several colleagues for taking on such a challenge.

She has been asked to repeat the presentation to the staff who couldn’t make it this time and Rachel is offering to make the presentation to interested groups outside work. Do get in touch.

I think we already see the life changing effect Clipper is having on Rachel, even before the race! Rachel was asked whether Clipper preparation was stressful. To laughter, she said it was nothing compared to the reorganisation at work.

It is an honour to be a Supporter of such an amazing person with such courage and ability!

Rachel likes the branding with all the colours. The rainbow has special meaning for her. It is a reminder of her brother who died tragically and is a symbol of hope from that time.

This is the fund raising pack for the Clipper Race and Team Visit Sanya.

Clipper Race encourage all involved to support the fund raising. Feel free!

These are the details of the official Clipper Race travel arrangements. If you are thinking of joining Rachel at the beginning or end of a leg, these folk will give you a quote. They are really for the crew and provide special marine rates which allow more bags and more flexibility. Rachel is in the process of booking her flight to Punta del Este through them.

The team song ‘adventure of a lifetime’ by Coldplay has been approved by Clipper Race for Visit Sanya. Rachel is very chuffed because she recommended the song and it is very appropriate!!

These are the words of the song.

Turn your magic on, to me she’d say

Everything you want’s a dream away

We are legends, every day

That’s what she told him

I feel my heart beating

I feel my heart beneath my skin

I feel my heart beating

Oh, you make me feel

Like I’m alive again

Alive again

Oh, you make me feel

Like I’m alive again

Said I can’t go on, not in this way

I’m a dream, I die by light of day

Gonna hold up half the sky and say

Only I own me

I feel my heart beating

I feel my heart beneath my skin

Oh, I can feel my heart beating

‘Cause you make me feel

Like I’m alive again

Alive again

Oh, you make me feel

Like I’m alive again

Turn your magic on, to me she’d say

Everything you want’s a dream away

Under this pressure, under this weight

We are diamonds taking shape

We are diamonds taking shape

(Woo hoo, woo hoo)

If we’ve only got this life

This adventure oh then I

If we’ve only got this life

You’ll get me through, oh

If we’ve only got this life

And this adventure, oh then I

Wanna share it with you

With you, with you

Sing it, oh, say yeah!

Woo hoo (woo hoo)
