| Synopsis |
In 2009, aged 24, Sarah Outen became the first woman and youngest person to row solo across the Indian Ocean, spending 124 days alone at sea. She rowed from Australia to Mauritius, battling 100ft waves, searing heat and mid-ocean capsizes. She joins the Wilderness Lectures to talk of her ocean adventures, sharing photography and footage from the row, and will also talk about her next expedition, a solo human-powered loop of the planet.'
This will be the Ginette Harrison Memorial Lecture |
| Profile |
Growing up in land-locked Rutland, it perhaps wasn't the most obvious thing for Sarah Outen to head out to sea. Learning to row while a biology student at the University of Oxford, she graduated in 2007 before teaching for a year. Her first book is due to be released in March 2011, published by Summersdale. She departs in April 2011 on her next expedition.
