In an awe-inspiring 52-day feat, Bengaluru-born Ananya Prasad became the first Indian woman to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean, placing second in the prestigious World’s Toughest Row. Covering 3,000 miles from La Gomera, Tenerife to Antigua, Ananya battled fierce storms, equipment failures, and the vast expanse of the ocean in one of the most grueling endurance challenges on the planet. As one of only a handful of women to complete this solo challenge, Ananya Prasad is a trailblazer in the world of ocean rowing. Less than 25 women have ever rowed solo across an ocean.
