Hey, it would only take 29 days to swim that. Assuming you don't get sucked under by a riptide, drowned in a storm, or eaten by a shark, it should be a piece of cake, right?

Or get hypothermia. And can carry enough food and water to sustain you. Or you get hit by the Earthrace biodiesel boat*.

*okay, I actually think it's a cool concept and am all for exploring alternative fuels. But dammit, when you're attempting to make a name for yourself, try not to run over fishing boats.
