Jenn Gibbons Returns To Chicago, Completing Charity Trip In Spite Of Assault

[HarveyDarkey]

Almost two months after rower Jenn Gibbons embarked on a 1,500-mile solo rowing trip to raise awareness and funds for the breast cancer recovery group she leads, the 27-year-old and her vessel, Liv, returned to Chicago shores Tuesday.

But during one of many nights Gibbons spent sleeping in her vessel, a man police believe was tracking her movements online broke into her cabin and sexually assaulted her while she was moored along the shore of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

"My trip didn't go exactly as planned," Gibbons told NBC Chicago upon her return, "but I accomplished everything I wanted to accomplish. I still think there's more good people in the world than bad."
