Oxford Union - James Cracknell - Speaker Profile
oxfordunionsociety  · November 14, 2011
Monday 5th Week, 7th November The Oxford Union *** James Cracknell is one of Britain's most successful athletes of all time, with 2 Olympic Gold Medals and 6 World Championship titles. His epic rowing finals in Sydney 2000 and Athens 2004 were two of the most watched sporting contests in history but it is really since retiring from his 13 year international career that James has distinguished himself as a very special and inspiring sportsman, athlete and adventurer. Over recent years, James has co-written the critically acclaimed 'The Crossing' and the BBC transmitted documentary series 'Through Hell and High Water'. James was also asked by the BBC to set out on a journey in which he rowed The English Channel, cycled through France and Spain and finally swam The Strait of Gibralter, accompanied by comedian David Walliams. It took him a mere ten days to cover just under 1500 miles and raise £340000 for Sport Relief.
