I've blogged before about an amazing woman, Sarah Outen. she is on a masssive round the world expedition by bike, kayak and rowing boat. Last week there were some developments resulting in her being picked up by the Japanese coast guard - not a decision she will have taken lightly. As I undretsand it 400 miles into the pacific ocean row she was hit by a storm of a severity she and her team did not expect. After being rolled something like 30 times in her tiny craft the boat sutained damage which meant she needed to be picked up and taken back to japan.
Thankfully she is safe and well and recovering with friends. Its worth reading more about Sarah and her adventure which I suspect is still not over knowing how tenacious she is. Check out http://www.sarahouten.com/blog/
Whilst you were on a normal week, maybe half term with the kids, maybe at work or school or collage think about what Sarah was going through. Amazing. Good luck Sarah whatever comes your way next and with whatever choices you make.
Ever Onwards
