Caroline Block’s Marathon Swim Story

Caroline Block’s Marathon Swim Story

In this episode we were inspired by a remarkable woman who has attempted a double of the North Channel, not once, but twice! Caroline Block, started marathon swimming just five years ago and has honed an impressive resume, including 4 successful crossings of the North Channel. We talk about equal access, being a conservative swimmer, having a super human ability to sustain lions mane jelly fish stings, checking your assumptions, and so much more. 

In her own words: I’m a Channel swimmer from New York. I started open water swimming a few years ago and I’m loving where the sport has taken me and the friendships I’ve made with swimmers around the globe.
