Thursday 22 August is a big day for Sophie Cross. Not only will she be arriving with her Zhuhai teammates at London’s St Katharine Docks ahead of Race Start, but it is also her 18th birthday.
By turning 18 just ten days before Race Start, Sophie is the youngest out of the 700 people taking on the 2019-20 edition of the race.
She signed up at just 16 while recovering from back surgery and wants her adventure to prove that anything is possible.
Sophie will be racing on board Zhuhai and taking part in Leg 1 from London to Uruguay via Portugal and Leg 7 from Seattle, through the Panama Canal to New York.
