PEOPLE OF WTC | LEGENDS EDITION MARION | 13-14.0 PEOPLE OF WTC | LEGENDS EDITION 

MARION | 13-14.07.2026 | LAC Lร‰MAN CROSSING | 70KM+ OF AWESOMENESS!

Our very own WTC President, making history... again! 

July 13, at 17:08, @marionswimsacross waltzed into the water of Lake Geneva / Lac Lรฉman, by Chรขteau de Chillon and, after swimming through the evening, the night and into the next day, she touched shore in Geneva, 70km and less than 30 hrs later, completing one of the toughest marathon swims in the world: the iconic Signature swim!! ๐Ÿคฏ 

- Some serious Marion-grit-and-determination on display throughout ๐Ÿ”ฅ
- An incredible support crew in tow taking care of her โค๏ธ
- Loads of telepathic cheering and love sent her way ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

To put the feat into perspective...
- More than twice the straight-line distance across the English Channel... (which she also crossed back in 2023!!!)
- About the combined length of Loch Lomond and Loch Ness!!

Just epic!

Since 1986, only 17 swimmers (10 women), have officially completed the crossing and earned Solo Legend status from the Lake Geneva Swimming Association @lakegenevasa 
No French woman on that list ..yet....
...time for some updates to those stats!!! ๐Ÿ’ช

Madame la Prรฉsidente, quite a way to celebrate the 14th of July!๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ต

Congratulations Marion! 
What a legend and an inspiration!!

Keep shining!
