Kate Middleton on the Thames

Prince Williams on-again off-again girlfriend, Kate Middleton is preparing to compete with a rowing crew of 21 females to take on the Cross Channel Challenge next month. The crew is named ‘The Sisterhood’ and are taking on the all-male Brotherhood to be the first females to row across the English Channel.

The race will start from Shakespeare Beach, ( west of Dover Harbour), and last for about 35 km until Cap Gris Nez, located west of Calais. If the Sisterhood wins, it will be the first time in history a team of all-female rowers has made it across the Channel.

The Sisterhood describes themselves as talented, toned and possessed of killer looks!

I’ll say they look pretty sharp in those outfits, but I’m more interested in seeing their male counterparts.

You go girls! Get across that channel and make some history!

Oh - and there’s a little bit of scandal associated with this according to the Daily Mail.
