Roz Rows alone, as the world cheers on!
Roz Savage is attempting to become the first woman to row the Pacific solo, and we here at GeekCulture Headquarters are addicted to following her along on her adventure. She's doing it in a three stage, three year project that will take her 7600 miles, from the United States to Australia! (She previously rowed across the Atlantic Ocean as the only solo female competitor in the 3000-mile Atlantic Rowing Race from the Canaries to Antigua. You can find a 4-part series about that trip on YouTube.)
There are many ways to track her progress. You can read her blog, listen to TWiT.tv's Podcast Roz Rows, track her real-time position via Marinetracker, or even follow her on Twitter! Her podcasts are particularly interesting, as Leo Laporte calls her on a satellite phone every few days.
(Nitrozac drew Roz's portrait for her iTune art, presented above in a glorious wide format.)
