11-day Window For Chloë McCardel
Her mind is set. Her mindset is geared towards long, arduous swims across countries.Chloë McCardel twice prepared herself to swim a triple crossing of the English Channel. Although she swam blazing fast on the first two legs, she never quite made the complete three-way crossing. But that preparation is optimal for her Straits of Florida swim to be attempted between June 10th and 20th.
It is a window of opportunity, a window where numerous variables must be factored in before the final GO is given.
Watch Chloë McCardel‘s site between June 10th and 20th to follow her in near real-time via her SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger that will be positioned on her escort boat.
