Daredevil Galwegian Who Couldn t Swim Or Row Underwent Gruelling 51 Day Challenge For Charity

Johnny Ward is one difficult fella to pin down, not least because he can’t stay in one place for very long. After all, this is the man who has made a name not to mention a hugely lucrative travel blogging business for himself as being the only Irishman to have travelled to every country in the world. It takes three attempts to get chatting to him from where he is currently in Antigua but he’s got a good excuse for having to postpone the call. Johnny Ward has been desperately trying to book in for a haircut, and I couldn’t deny him that. After spending 51 days rowing the Atlantic Ocean 3,200 nautical miles from the Canary Islands to Antigua, to be exact, he deserves all the pampering he can get.

Atlantic row the hardest thing I ve ever done

BBC News Atlantic row ‘the hardest thing I’ve ever done’ Close Johnny Ward is part of a four-man rowing team that has crossed the Atlantic Ocean in a single boat. The travel blogger is originally from Kilkeel in County Down and took on the challenge to raise awareness about mental health. The trip - dubbed The Atlantic Dash - was a 3,200 mile journey from the Canary Islands to Antigua. Johnny s crewmates were Billy Taylor, Martin Heseltine and BBC TV chef Dirty Vegan Matt Pritchard. They initially set off from Lanzarote on 6 March, but the journey had to restart from Fuerteventura a week later because of seat problems.

Herefordshire man celebrates reaching dry land after rowing across the Atlantic

A HEREFORDSHIRE man is celebrating reaching dry land after rowing more than 3,000 miles across the Atlantic. Martin Heseltine, 62, from Walford, near Ross-on-Wye, has spent the last 50 days all at sea as part of a four-man vegan crew rowing from Lanzarote to Antigua to raise money for men s mental health charity Humen and Chepstow animal sanctuary, the Dean Farm Trust. Not an adventure to be taken lightly, Martin and the crew rowed non-stop in alternating two-hour shifts, using muscle power alone and with no backup vessel to cover the 3,200 mile distance. The team faced storms, sleep deprivation, extreme fatigue and, at times, huge seas. They also had to cope with injury when crew member Matt Pritchard, more famously known as plant-loving prankster and chef The Dirty Vegan, tore a lateral muscle forcing him to take a break from rowing for several days, while Martin battled with painful tendonitis in his leg.
