Lara completed her solo and unsupported row on

Tuesday 21st March 2023 at 07:07 local Antigua time

after 98 days, 22 hours and 22 minutes at sea.

What an absolutely incredible accomplishment!!!

Rowing solo across the world’s second largest ocean pushed Lara to her physical and mental limit – there is a reason why more people have climbed Mt. Everest than have rowed across the Atlantic.

Lara's row has been dedicated to her father for all the times he went above and beyond.

Lara's father sadly passed away on September 14th 2022.

He wasn't able to see Lara complete the challenge

but she felt his presence out there every second of every day.

Drive and Determination

From a young age I have always wanted to achieve more, to help others and to be the best I can be.

The target my dad set when he was younger was...

“Aim High”.

Don’t look left or right

- FOCUS -

and aim high

... And you can achieve anything,
