You're not only watching Charlie Dalin win the Vendée Globe, but break the race record by NINE days. Charlie Dalin had been there but never done that. In the 2020-2021 edition of the Vendee Globe race, he had been first up this channel. But he officially finished second after Yannick Bestaven was awarded time credit for coming to another sailor’s aid and achieved a well-deserved victory. Today it is Charlie’s day. There is nothing anywhere in sailing like the day the first finisher crosses the line in Les Sables d’Olonne. Harken was there, At The Front…where we must be. There will be time for analysis of the race and full examination of the Harken equipment aboard each boat after a lap of the planet. But for today, it’s just Bravo Charlie!!! #vendéeglobe #AtTheFront
For years, Japan has fascinated the world with its long-lived population. But what if part of that story was never just diet, exercise, or healthcare? What if it was community itself? In this Field Note, I explore a thought that has stayed with me since a gerontologist first suggested I may be documenting the last cohort of healthy Japanese super-agers. That question took me unexpectedly to the decline of Japan’s Yakult Ladies—not simply as a business story, but as a sign of something deeper changing inside Japanese society. The blog explores why routine human contact, neighborhood familiarity, and social belonging may have been just as important to healthy aging as anything nutritional. Read the full Field Note here: https://www.nevertoolateacademy.com/post/the-yakult-lady-and-the-last-cohort About me: I’m Lowell Sheppard, 71, sailor, author, and Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society.

Im nächsten Teil geht’s direkt mit den Lösungswegen weiter. Hafentraining & Termine: https://sporedo.de/dl/intensiv-hafentrainings-in-holland/ #hafentraining #hafenmanoever #ablegen
