WHAT A SWIMMER!

Endurance swimmer, Chloe McCardel, has completed a record-breaking crossing of the English Channel.

The Australian swam her 35th Channel crossing on Saturday evening in a time of 10 hours and 40 minutes.

Completing the tricky 21-mile challenge means the 35-year-old has now passed the men's record of 34 times held by British athlete Kevin Murphy.

She is now only behind British swimmer and 'Queen of the English Channel' Alison Streeter, who has swam the route a whopping 43 times!
