Sally Minty-Gravett's Marathon Swim Story
Description
My guest today started her competitive swimming career in 1967, and it continues to this day. In 2016, on the 41st anniversary of her first English Channel crossing, she completed an English Channel 2 way. Sal Minty-Gravett's Swimming CV is 5 pages long. We barely scratched the surface today, but be sure to stick around to the end for the eventful bits of a few of her swims!
