The oldest woman to swim across the English Channel
Pat Gallant-Charette is living proof that we don’t need to put time constraints on our dreams. The 66-year-old grandmother of three from Westbrook, Maine became the oldest woman to ever swim across the English Channel in June when she made the 21-mile-turned-34-mile crossing (because of the strong current) in 18 hours.
Channel swim teenagers ‘went off like rockets’ but kept pace for quick time
East Anglian Daily Times
The relay team of six sea swimmers, aged 13-17, crossed the Strait of Dover in 10 hours and 16 minutes. Upon reaching France, the East Coast Icicles – members of Felixstowe Swimscapes open water swimmers club – thought they may have broken this year’s record time. But, as it turned out, the fastest Channel swimmer of all time, Trent Grimsey, had crossed the strait with five others in 8hr 47min only the day before.
