But after 42 days on the water,Davies reached Antigua to become one of the only six women in the world over the age of 60 to have rowed across an ocean."I was exhausted and I was also so proud of myself,she says. Davies began rowing when she was 53,after spotting a six-oar()rowing boat in Bristol har- bor.Attracted by its size and appearance,she spoke to the crew and was encouraged to do a tri- al run."As soon as I got on the water,I fell in love with it,”she says.“Feeling your whole body working and the fresh air on your skin is amazing." It wasn't until 2017,though,that her At- lantic plans were born.Suffering from a hernia- ted disc(椎间盘突出)，she was only able to crawl out of bed."I began thinking of things I could look forward to after I had surgery,"she says. "One day I was reading about women adventurers when it hit me that once better,I would row across an ocean.” After successful surgery,Davies began driv- ing to meet other women who had undertaken rows.Hearing the experiences and advice of them gave Davies the confidence.Soon after,she heard that a new boat producer was organizing a team for a voyage across the Atlantic and she joined it immediately. "In June,I'm planning to break a few world records by rowing around the UK when I'm 64, and I want to motorcycle through the Himalayas later in the year.After all,we need things to look back on,she says.
