She is the only female and the youngest competitor amongst 19 sailors attempting to complete the journey without any outside assistance or modern equipment, recreating the conditions of the original race won by Sir Robin Knox-Johnston in 1969. The qualities she’ll need to take on this incredible challenge mirror the values we all share at DHL Express. She’ll need speed to win the race. She’ll need a can-do spirit in the face of adversity. She’ll need to get things right first time. And she’ll need passion to keep going when the chips are down.
