Episode Details

Seventeen-year-old Lorelei Schmidt just became a Triple Crown of Open Water Swimming champion by conquering the English Channel in 12 hours and 5 minutes — a feat that took years of relentless training, weather delays, and sheer grit. Already a two-time crown winner with swims across Catalina and Manhattan’s 20 Bridges, she now joins an elite group of fewer than 500 athletes who’ve achieved this. Her coach was stunned by her dedication, and fans watched every moment online as she pushed through brutal Pacific waters last year in the Kaiwi Channel. A rising star from Raleigh’s Marlins swim team, Lorelei proves that age is no barrier when passion meets persistence.
