Martin Strel vs. the Yangtze River

strel_begins
Martin Strel prepares to swim the Yangtze. From his official site.

In September 2002, the Slovenian swimmer Martin Strel became the first man to swim the length of the Mississippi in a single attempt. He swam for 68 days before reaching the Gulf of Mexico, drinking a bottle of wine a day and losing nearly 40 pounds in the process. Now he’s attempting to swim the Yangtze River in China. (He already has both the Danube and the Parana under his belt.) Here’s a good story about Strel’s latest adventure, from the Christian Science Monitor.

And here is his official page, which has tons of up-to-date info and will include daily reports of his epic struggle. Best of luck to him!
