Location: Morse Auditorium
Rich Wilson endured hurricane-force gales, crushing fatigue, broken ribs, compressed vertebrae and more to complete the almost 29,000-mile Vendee Globe 2008–09 race. Wilson describes his solo, nonstop 121-day race and what it was like to compete as the only American, the only asthmatic and the oldest skipper in the fleet.
