Jennifer Figge took 24 days to swim from the Cape Verde islands off Africa to Trinidad. The exact distance she covered has yet to be calculated.

Fabulous but I did the math and the numbers don't add up. Anyone else notice this? How fast was she swimming on average?

It's too bad that such an incredible achievement is overshadowed by references to Michael Phelps. Congratulations to Ms. Figge on her endurance and perseverance.

Wow!! that's some stamina. Speaking of endurance unleashed... on the 15th March 2009, three world record holding athletes, two English and one American, will embark on a mission of a lifetime to become the first men on earth to run 7 Marathons in 7 consecutive days on 7 separate continents.
Stuart, Chris and Olly’s journey will take them from Antarctica's icy plains to the thriving city metropolises of Los Angeles, Santiago, Sydney and Hong Kong. From here they will travel to the vast deserts of North Africa and finally arrive for a homecoming in London on Sunday 22nd March.

Seems misleading to me. I mean, I guess it's a great achievement, but I feel cheated when I read the fine print. I read that someone swam the Atlantic, I'm thinking they actually ran into the ocean from a beach in Europe or Africa and eventually surfaced somewhere in North or South America. And that's hardly the case here.

okay so even if the article is wrong about the number of days, you have to give her some credit for even trying and making it, however long it took her.

24 days of swimming?
I'd be afraid of vomiting.
But maybe that's because I failed my lifeguard test when I took the swim test in a heated pool, became dehydrated, and vomited in the pool. - 3 years ago
