Incredibly well done article on gender and performance in ultra sports, featuring Sarah Thomas @Sarahswims04

[MarathonSwimrs Fed. @longswims]

@willpavia Good coverage of @Sarahswims04 epic swim, but sad to see photo of @diananyad at top, whose swim has never been ratified and is widely questioned. False equivalence.

[MarathonSwimrs Fed. @longswims]

Sarah Thomas Quadruple English Channel swim done in 54 hours and a few minutes (pending official details). Among the greatest sporting feats of our time.

@BBCWorld Good article but @sophierose233 you might check out ultra-marathon swimming where women hold MOST of the distance records.
