A BLUE TIDE: CHANNELING THE POWER OF WOMEN
The Challenge: Swim 21 miles from Dover, UK to Cape de Gris Nez, France in August 2018
As a lifelong competitive distance swimmer and international policy advisor, I am combining my two vocations into a challenge: To swim across the English Channel.
As a woman, I am inspired by Gertrude Ederle, the first woman to cross the Channel in 1927, and the historic swims of Lynne Cox, and Anne Cleveland. I’m ready to jump in and join the women who’ve made waves.
As I train for the Big Swim, I will support other women swimming against the current and embracing their own challenges. My swim will raise money to support Democratic and pro-choice women running in the 2018 U.S. midterm elections.
Join me to channel the power of women: swim, vote, and run.
