NEWPORT, VERMONT \u2013 MAGOG, QUEBEC \u2013 On September 10, 2018, four ultra-marathon open water swimmers will be attempting to swim the 25-mile length of Lake Memphremagog between Newport, VT and Magog, QC. The swim is In Search of Memphre, an amateur swim which was begun in 2011 to promote a more open border and search for the elusive \u201cswimmer friendly\u201d lake creature, Memphre.<\/p>\n

The swimmers are supported by 14 boat pilots, crew, and kayakers. The swim starts at 12:01 am and leaves from either the EastSide Restaurant in Newport or Parc de la Baie-de-Magog. Each of September\u2019s swimmers have impressive experience in the open water.<\/p>\n

English, 30, of Seattle, WA, has been competitively swimming since she was 8 and through college at UC Santa Cruz. She is a \u201cfree spirit\u201d open water swimmer. \u201c I find a body of water, grab a friend and go.\u201d She took her first \u201cdip in Lake Memphremagog at the 2017 Memphremagog Winter Swim Festival and returned that same year to swim the 25 km Border Buster in 7 hrs and 21 minutes. Her training for The Search has taken her to Monterey, Providence, Seattle-Tacoma, and Missoula. Her training regimen includes swimming a lot and eating \u201cto excess at least 6 times a day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leupold Knight, 48, of Kennebunk, ME, was a fiercely competitive pool swimmer growing up in Virginia and at UNC Chapel Hill, as well as an Olympic Trials participant in 1988 and 1992. In her 40\u2019s she has emerged as an accomplished ultra-marathon open water swimmer and in doing so has laid down some impressive times, starting with Boston Light and Swim the Suck in 2014, the 15-mile Border Buster in 2015 (6:57:37), the English Channel in 2016 (9 hrs, 26 min), 20 Bridges Manhattan Island in 2017 (7 hrs 18 min) and the Freedom Day Swim in South Africa in 2018.<\/p>\n

In 2018, over 60 swimmers have participated in cross border swims on Lake Memphremagog. In recent years, Canadian and US border officials have facilitated this effort to re-open Lake Memphremagog to international swimming. The City of Magog and The EastSide Restaurant have assisted with the logistics of the swim. Escort boats with caged propellers are provided by Magog\u2019s Triathlon Club. Consistent with the mission of promoting a more open border, the 2018 Swimmer Scouts in both September\u2019s Search and the earlier July\u2019s Search are encouraging donations to the Asylum Seeker Advocacy Project.<\/p>\n

In Search of Memphre is hosted by the Northeast Kingdom Open Water Swimming Association and Kingdom Games<\/a> which organizes over 25 days of running, biking, swimming, and ice skating events in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont and the Eastern Townships of Quebec.<\/p>\n
