Just watched The Loneliest Race, a great doc on the round the globe solo sailing race that takes 9 months to complete.

Incredible! you are with these sailors as they try to overcome storms at sea, mechanical failures, and going crazy from the solitude. They started with 16, only 3 finished, and only 9 have completed this race since its inception in 1968. They do it with 1968 technology, no GPS, no cell phones.

The winner is ..................... very gratifying.
