The youngest person to swim across lake Ontario

Annaleise Carr made history this summer, becoming the youngest person to swim across Lake Ontario in a 27 hour swim.  Annaleise is 14 years old, too young to swim with our LOST group since it is Masters, but it's a big lake so we bumped into her during some of her trainung.  My impression when I saw her training was that she was a strong girl but to tough it out through 27 hours, incredible, at any age, but particularly at 14!


Here's one of the articles about her crossing:

Congratulations Annaleise!
