Swimmer aims for 79 miles in 48 hours - avoiding sharks and jellyfish

AUSTRALIAN ultra-marathon swimmer Chloe McCardel will attempt a world record-breaking open water swim from the southern tip of Eleuthera to Nassau later this month. If successful the 79-mile swim, which is expected to take up to 48 hours to complete, would be the longest open-water solo, continuous, unassisted marathon swim ever.
