Controlling Fear in the Pyrenees By Jane Harries
Fear. Is fear the most important word in the English language? After all, fear can be all encompassing. Fear can stop us attaining our goals. Fear can stop us moving to a new city, country, or continent. For some, fear can stop us leaving our home. So what would our editor do when faced with her fear of ropes and falling, when finding herself doing Via Ferrata in the Pyrenees?

The Big Interview with Vendee Globe sailor, Pip Hare By Jane Harries

What does it take to sail around the world nonstop and solo? Pip Hare knows. Pip is actually the first person I interviewed for Adventure She magazine (see Issue 6, June 2019). In that interview Pip talked about her background, seizing the moment, and turning dreams into goals that we actively work towards. Pip’s big goal was the very next Vendée Globe, set to start in November 2020. Earlier this year after 95 days 11 hours 37 minutes and 30 seconds alone at sea, Pip Hare become the 8th woman ever, and only the 108th person ever, to complete the Vendée Globe non-stop, solo, round the world sailing race. Compare that to climbing Mount Everest when in 2019, according to haexpeditons.com 876 people summited. Yes 876 in one year! Here’s another statistic, more men, 12. have walked on the moon, than women who’ve successfully completed the Vendée Globe, being a total of 10. A few weeks after Pip finished we caught up over Zoom. So how did Pip’s campaign fare and what did she learn during the process of preparing for and doing the race? Finally, a huge thank you to all of Pip’s volunteers, supporters, and sponsors. Without you the volunteers, supporters and sponsors, a lot of people may never get to realise their dreams.
