Show Notes
With the Channel finally crossed, the arms race for who could cross it the fastest kicked off, and in a shock for the media at the time, it would be the woman who would set the standard.
Gertrude Ederle would set the pace, although her coach worked work against her.
As time went on, the records became harder to set, until an eleven-year-old stepped up to the plate.
Titus has a live show in Melbourne on 7 June. You can get tickets here.
