Sadly, Doug was not able to make it across the channel. The swells were too big and he was exhausted from trying to fight them. We are sorry

[A Long Swim @ALongSwim1]

Our 3 hour trip to Moloka'i has begun! Doug will start swimming from Moloka'i at around 8pm!

The A Long Swim team has been watching Tropical Storm Darby's after effects to find the perfect window for the swim, things are looking up!

So funny! This drink we bought today at the Costco on Oahu is called 'Moloka'i Coconut'

[A Long Swim @ALongSwim1]

Running some errands in preparation for the swim! Still don't know what day the crew and Doug are going, but soon!

[A Long Swim @ALongSwim1]

Full moon this AM on the north shore of Oahu! This is the full moon that Doug has been waiting for!
