Beijing January 2nd news, according to the voice of China's "global Chinese wide broadcast network", recently, John Beadon, the Canadian man The 6 - meter - long, 1 - meter - and 6 - wide boat, after 209 days of hard and lonely voyage for nearly 7 months, arrived at Keynes in northeastern Australia from San Francisco, the other end of the Pacific, for 11 thousand and 300 kilometers, the first man to cross the Pacific alone.
John Beadon is 53 years old. When he started in San Francisco in June 1st, he planned to complete the Pacific crossing in 180 days, or 6 months. But he clearly underestimated the severe test of the less Pacific Pacific. During the voyage, frequent winds and waves and lack of sleep extended his voyage for almost a month.
born in birdon, England, has lived with his wife and two daughters in Burlington west of Toronto since 2004.
when he arrived at Keynes, Biden said in an interview with reporters that he had to sail 15 hours a day in the almost 7 months of the boundless Pacific Ocean, sleeping only 3 to 4 hours a day, and the extremely difficult voyage almost broke his will, but he remained at the end of the day. What he really wants to do now is to take a good bath, sleep in a good sleep, and do not row 15 hours a day. This is very good.
in addition to boating, Biden is a running fan. In fact, he liked it better than he liked and was also good at endurance sports. In order to prepare for crossing the Pacific, he practiced rowing in Canada's home every day. Even so, Beadon said the difficulty of crossing the Pacific Ocean was far beyond his imagination. The difficulty he encountered was 10 times, 15 times, or even 100 times as much as he had thought. In
2011, Biden rowed across the Atlantic alone in the same way. He then crossed the Atlantic in 53 days, 4800 kilometers in length. It was the boat crossing the Atlantic that inspired him to meet the challenge of greater challenges. Now, Biden conquered the Pacific again. He said he felt very happy and accomplished. People often ask him why they should take the initiative to meet these challenges. He explained on his website that he wanted to do something that he felt worthwhile, and he wanted his children to understand that there was no challenge that could not be met in the world.
