Four women are now in the history books after rowing across the Pacific!

The women — part of Lat 35 Racing — rowed in two-hour shifts and averaged just 90 minutes of sleep each day as they covered more than 2,400 nautical miles across the ocean, according toGoodMorningAmerica.

Despite their record-breaking feat, the group emphasized that others could tackle this kind of challenge too.

“I think something that I want people to take away is that these women are so incredible but we’re not superhuman. There’s nothing that we were born with that makes us any different than anybody else,” Downes said.
