Film Trailer!

Last year as part of my training, I set myself a (smaller) challenge: circumnavigate the Farallon Islands – a chain of gnarly looking volcanic rocks some 26 miles west of the Golden Gate Bridge.

You can see the islands occasionally, backlit by rays of low-lying sun or on particularly clear days as you cross the bridge from Marin County to San Francisco; San Francisco to Marin. Prohibited to people, a wildlife sanctuary and shark feeding ground, the islands are shrouded in mystery.

I had years of nightmares as a child after watching the film Jaws. Now row out towards a shark feeding ground? Alone? In a dinky rowboat?

This is the trailer for the film documenting the physical and emotional journey of what became one of the hardest feats I have ever accomplished.
