Who's up for rowing across the Atlantic? Not me. Not a big fan of being in the middle of the ocean for 40 seconds, much less 40 days!
But one of my heroes, Robert Hamilton Owens, is joining 11 other brave souls and making the dangerous and exhausting journey to raise money for the Mark Crampton Memorial Trans-Atlantic Row.
Robert is taking on the challenge to row 3500 miles across the Atlantic to raise awareness of, and funding for, the prevention of veteran suicide, in honor of his friend, retired Navy SEAL Mark Crampton, who took his own life in April 2022.
Robert is a 71-year-old ex-USAF Pararescueman, the Air Force version of the Navy SEALs. This is not the first such challenge for the father of 5, Robert is also a 12-time Ironman triathlete, has run 7 marathons in 7 days on 7 continents, and completed the 50-hour Kokoro Navy SEAL hell week simulation at the age of 69. Amazing!
He's raising donations for the Courage Foundation, which offers an integrated, holistic approach for helping veterans with post-traumatic stress and transition back into society.
The challenge will begin December 4, 2022, in the Canary Islands with the goal of arriving in Antigua by mid-January, 2023. Robert felt this epic 40+ day endurance event would help bring attention to this Suicide Prevention crises.
"We can reach and encourage these veterans before they make that terrible lonely decision to take their lives." - Robert Owens.

Why Win Again?
Combining my passion for sports and a desire to help others succeed, I founded the Win Again Academy, where current and former athletes can discover their identity beyond sports, develop the structure needed to succeed again, and receive the tips, strategies and actionable advice that allows them to WIN AGAIN and be elite in their next great career. Over the past 20 years as a business advisor and career coach, I have guided athletes and executives, holding them accountable during their transition.
The Win Again Clubroom events, "Make Your Mark" podcasts, and MYM Live webinars highlight athletes who are making a positive impact post-playing career, and my book "Win Again!" is a job search playbook for athletes, equipping them with strategies needed to land their ideal job or boost their entrepreneurial ventures.
