A Perfect Score

The Catalina Channel Swim Federation announced that five men successfully crossed the Catalina Channel in September. Paul Lundgren completed the crossing 10 hours and 19 minutes. Peter Attia went from the mainland to Catalina Island in 14 hours and 8 minutes. Joe Locke crossed in 9 hours and 45 minutes. David Livengood crossed in 11 hours and 39 minutes. Stephen Autry crossed in 12 hours and 51 minutes.

Taking into account Todd Robinson's record-setting 8 hours and 5 minutes crossing set last month (photo shown above), the Catalina Channel Swim Federation swimmers have collectively achieved a 100% success rate.
