"We were only a few months out from the start of the race, none of them seemed dangerously unhinged, the wine helped and I signed on." 7/

"I sat on the floor of my rented flat in Dublin with a big glass of wine and had a Skype with Duncan, Matt and John: three men, all strangers to me and to each other, from different parts of the world, with a rented boat and the crazy shared dream of rowing an ocean." 6/

Luckily, embarrassment is a powerful motivator. "I’d told people I was going to row the Pacific by then... I hurriedly looked for a way to save face [row across an ocean with absolutely anyone who would take me]." 5/

But things didn't go to plan. "We didn’t have a boat, or the sponsorship or money to get one. It was rapidly becoming clear that the dream didn’t quite match the reality." 4/

"Somewhere between my ability to chuck a throw-line moderately accurately across a picnic table and getting on well with the Team Captain’s pet dog, I found myself selected and signing up to row the Pacific. I didn’t tell anyone for a while." 3/

"In 2013 I read a Facebook post seeking applicants for the final space in a crew of British women... It all sounded very exciting and I immediately assumed that tens, if not hundreds, of more qualified ocean rowing women would be applying." 2/

Today's article is Susannah Cass' story of ocean rowing... https://t.co/ZYTgWDylMa ... with the title "How [not] to Row an Ocean", you're in for a ride. 1/
