Captained by Vito Bialla, the team consists of Christine Americans Christine Gonzales and Paul Lundgren, and Mexicans Monica Ramirez, Nora Toledano and Edna Llorens, a stellar group of experienced open water swimmers.This 113-mile swim was on the list of futuristic swims - swims so difficult and so audacious that it would take a combination of big dreams, experienced swimmers, a capable support crew with a dash of luck in order to achieve success.
It is great to see the future being accomplished now.
