The world marathon swimming list was updated today due to Nick Adams‘s swim of 9 hours and 51 minutes around Jersey (Round Jersey).
A veteran of marathon swims around the world and the creator of the globally popular Channel Swimmers website Adams slivered two minutes off of the record of 9 hours and 53 minutes, set in 1989 by the legendary Queen of the Channel Alison Streeter.
