BRITISH Olympic bronze medallist Heidi Long is daring girls to dream when they watch her tear down the Thames in the Boat Race.

Heidi hopes to get girls ROWING in with dream

The 28-year-old is set to stroke Oxford's dark blue boat tomorrow, the 10th anniversary of the men's and women's events both taking place on the historic 6.8-kilometre Championship Course.

Long, who was on the podium last summer in Paris with Team GB's women's eights, remembers sitting on the London river's bank at a younger age, not even noticing the lack of female crews because the absence back then felt “so normal”.
