Celebrities Rally Behind Young Woman Who's Going Viral for Solo Row Across Atlantic
In a display of support, Sharon Stone and Pierce Brosnan have joined forces with other A-listers to cheer on a young woman named Taryn Smith as she embarks on an incredible journey. Taryn, who is competing in the World's Toughest Row, has captured the hearts of fans around the globe with her inspiring story of perseverance and determination.
The 3,000-mile rowing challenge from the Canary Islands to Antigua is no ordinary feat, requiring Taryn to spend two hours on, two hours off, surfing 40-foot waves, burning 5,000 calories a day, and eating backpacking meals to stay fueled. Despite the grueling conditions, Taryn has been documenting her daily struggles and triumphs on social media, earning widespread admiration from celebrities like Ellen Pompeo, Will Smith, Mariska Hargitay, Alyssa Milano, and Katie Couric.
Taryn's mother, Shelly Smith, describes her daughter as "a kid that thrives on adventure" who has always been drawn to challenges. With a background in Girls on the Run, a nonprofit empowering girls through physical activity and confidence-building programs, Taryn is well-equipped to handle the mental and physical demands of this grueling journey.
As she rows across the ocean, Taryn reflects on the importance of resilience, citing the need to remember that "everything ends" and that context can provide perspective. She also emphasizes the value of being uncomfortable, acknowledging that it's a part of the human experience. While days are filled with challenging weather conditions, Taryn has found solace in moments of calm and serenity.
With the support of her fans, including Sharon Stone and Pierce Brosnan, who commented on one of Taryn's videos saying "Stay strong of heart Taryn, Day at a time. Mighty woman you are," it's clear that Taryn is not alone on this journey. As she nears the completion of her rowing challenge within the week, fans around the world will be cheering her on, inspired by her courage and determination.
Taryn's inspiring story serves as a reminder that with hard work, resilience, and the right mindset, even the most daunting challenges can be overcome.
