Hello Ssthomas and All,
Amazing!! Congratulations!
Do you have a number for how much weight you lost ...... and about how much fluid you consumed each hour?
Anything you would do differently .... in hindsight?
Oh ...... and were you monitored for heart rate or other physical data?
What's next?
Cheers, Neal

Thanks for posting. It's impressive to say the least. She looked wrecked at the end trying to get her "sea legs" again

This is just such an amazingly cool feat and I think it really resonates with me because it is so relatable. Usually, when you see someone do something that seems super-human, like run a 2:03 marathon or free climb some insane cliff or mountain bike across wild terrain, it's neat but just in a purely observatory way. I couldn't even approach any of those things. I can't hold 2:03 marathon pace for anything more than a short sprint and can't even contemplate many of the other extreme things we see on YouTube. However, even though I am a really crappy swimmer, I can swim 2:00 100s and know how that feels. In fact, I can do a whole workout of them or hold that pace or near it in an OWS race. So that makes it so much more real (and seemingly impossible) to contemplate holding that pace for 66 hours straight. Just absolutely amazing. To do it in cool water with just a bathing suit just adds to the wonder.Comparing Sarah's 67 hour, 104 mile swim to a 2 hr, 26-mi marathon is not an accurate analogy. Her swim is more comparable to Yiannis Kouros's WR for the 500 Km (310.68 mi) run, which is 60:23 or 11:40 per mile.

Great write-up, thanks for the link!!! I am surprised you had the energy to take those side trips after the swim; I think I would have just been sleeping and eating for at least 48 hr after swimming 67 hr!!!
