    Since 2016, Blue Marine have held exhilarating fundraising events to bring together ocean-loving people from everywhere and anywhere. Over £2.5m has been raised through the incredible London to Monaco, South Coast Challenge, Ventoux Challenge and London to Solent, thanks to our riders, event partners and sponsors. We have been lucky enough to have been joined on these events by royalty and celebrities including Eddie Jordan, Poppy Delavingne, James Blunt, Simon Le Bon, Prince Eugenie, Lady Amelia, Mike and Zara Tindall and H.S.H Prince Albert II of Monaco.

Blue Challenge stories

In case you need inspiration, have a look at the outstanding stories of people like you who wanted to make a difference and made it.

Competing in the 2025 IRONMAN 70.3 was a personal milestone, but even more meaningful was the opportunity to represent Cabinair Services in supporting Blue Marine Foundation. As a company committed to sustainability in aviation, Cabinair Services chose to stand behind a cause that protects the oceans we all depend on. This race became a symbol of endurance, responsibility and collective action. I’m proud to have carried their name across the finish line and even prouder of the impact we’ve made together through this campaign.

Looking back on our journey, we are filled with gratitude for the experiences shared, the lessons learned, and the friendships forged. Our journey across the Atlantic Ocean may have come to an end, but the funds raised for Blue Marine will have a lasting impact in helping to protect our oceans.

Running the Paris Marathon 2025 for Blue Marine Foundation was unforgettable—my first ever event, I was equally nervous and excited at the start line. The atmosphere was electric with crowds cheering and enthusiastically waving banners. Somehow, every ‘Super Mario’ power-up sign that I bashed gave me a real boost—something that needs studying! Despite my knees protesting halfway through and the final miles being a true test of endurance, I loved every moment. There’s something powerful about seeing thousands of people push through pain for causes they deeply care about, mine being the Blue Marine Foundation.

The ocean can recover faster than anyone thought possible. It can thrive beyond our wildest dreams. If it is left alone it can bounce back.
