Adventures of Angela Madsen
RowofLife,   Indian Ocean 8,
California Adaptive Rowing Programs,  US Rowing, & Paralympics

RowofLife began when Angela Madsen, a paraplegic, from Long Beach, CA USA, and Franck Festor, a single below the knee amputee, from Metz France, decided to ROW across the Atlantic Ocean in the Woodvale Challenge-2007 Atlantic Rowing Race.  On Feb. 7, 2008, after 66 days at sea, they completed that challenge.  There were 22 boats in the race (4 persons, pairs, and singles) RowofLife came in 8th in the pairs class and 10th overall.

Angela will be rowing in an 8 person boat which will be attempting a speed record across the Indian Ocean.  This attempt will coincide with start of Woodvale's Indian Ocean Rowing Race 2009 which begins April 19, 2009 leaving Geraldton, West Austraila and ending at Port Louis, Mauritius.  The race will cover approximately 3100 Nautical Miles (3567 miles).
