Patrick Fellows was a young competitive swimmer who then became an endurance athlete, triathlon, race director and entrepreneur.
His 31.8-mile, 9-hour swim along the Mississippi coastline in the Gulf of Mexico was a charity swim for Rocket Kids that kicked off a number of sports events for children in an area around Baton Rouge, Louisiana that was previously devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
