My Journey to the Vendee Globe
People often ask me why I want to take on the Vendée Globe – a solo, non-stop, unassisted race around the world. The honest answer? Because when I watched the start of the 2020-21 Vendée Globe during lockdown, I was at my desk for 12-16 hours a day, and I realised I needed something more: freedom, adventure, true challenge. That moment lit the spark for me to set what many would
call a crazy goal. I’ll admit it’s a huge mountain to climb from where I’m starting, but that’s why it’s so exciting to me.
