In this episode of the Team Forces Podcast, Heledd chats with Zara Lachlan, the first female to row solo from Europe to mainland South America, and the youngest person ever to complete this epic journey.
A former cyclist and rower with no prior experience at sea, Zara took on this extraordinary challenge with just a few months of training. Battling relentless headwinds, isolation, and being bitten by a Barracuda, she pushed through moments of doubt, proving that resilience and mindset are everything.
Zara shares the highs and lows of her record-breaking journey, from near-misses with cargo ships to surreal hallucinations and unexpected encounters with sharks. She reflects on the mental toughness needed to keep going, the power of gratitude, and how this adventure has shaped her as she prepares to join the British Army.
