Oh, and not that it is relevant to this conversation, but she's now raised $230,000 with her swim for the kids cancer camp. Incidentally, she just wanted to volunteer at the camp... but she wasn't allowed to... because she was too young. So she decided to do a swim instead. Pretty cool.
Cheers,

More like beyond cool. The actual accomplishment of swimming across the conventional LO route is stunning for someone of that age.....or anyone. It's known as one of the most unpredictable and difficult crossings in the world. What's more, having the social conscience to make this a charity swim speaks volumes for the young lady's character. She wasn't just out there to break a record for herself. She was out to help others in the process.
Keep moving forward.
