Christine Jennings Swims Around The World
Courtesy of WOWSA, Huntington Beach, California. Christine Jennings has traveled to over 20 countries in her open water swimming career, winning from Poland to Canada and many places in between.
One of her victories was in the RCP Tiburon Mile in San Francisco Bay in 2010. She will race again tomorrow where the expected ebb tide is expected to sweep athletes from the start on Angel Island towards the Golden Gate Bridge during the 1 nautical mile race.
