76 days alone: para-athlete rows solo across the Atlantic

Kelda Wood was hoping for a career as a show jumper when a one-ton bale of hay fell on her, crushing her leg. Through this life-changing accident she grew even more determined, starting the charity Climbing Out to help people who have survived injury and trauma.

Last year Kelda spent three months in total isolation, becoming the first para-athlete to row solo across the Atlantic, driven on by thoughts of the many people her charity is helping. It is an incredibly inspiring story of pushing through pain and loneliness, day after day, as strong winds threatened to push her right back where she came from. Just the sort of thing you need to hear if life's little problems are getting you down.
