McCardel has celebrated her induction with her timely and extraordinary 32nd<\/sup> crossing of the English Channel yesterday \u2013 confirming the girl from Mona Vale in Sydney as Australia\u2019s greatest ever English Channel swimmer who now has her\u00a0sights set on the world record of 34 crossings over the next fortnight.<\/p>\n

CHLOE MCCARDEL\u2019S 32nd<\/sup> ENGLISH CHANNEL CROSSING<\/a><\/p>\n

These incomparable Australian swimmers are amongst a who\u2019s who list of marathon and open water swimming greats and contributors that also includes Olympian Linda McGill, Trent Grimsey, Susie Maroney, John Koorey,<\/strong> and visually impaired swimmer James Pittar.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Australian swimmers have braved mountainous seas, freezing cold waters and creatures of the deep, showing remarkable tenacity and inner strength, their bodies covered in wool fat, stroking their way to exhaustion in some amazing swims.<\/p>\n

They have conquered some of the greatest and treacherous marathon and open water swims in the world, in cages and in raging seas, in darkness and in fog.<\/p>\n

From the English Channel to the fabled Loch Ness and the River Danube to the wilds of the Amazon River and to its Olympic debut in Beijing in 2008, Australians love affair with water and adventure, have seen them emerge as champions of the seven seas.<\/p>\n

It all started with Sydney-born and Melbourne educated Kellermann, who had won the NSW 110 yards and one mile championships in 1902, had three unsuccessful attempts to swim the English Channel in 1905.<\/p>\n

But she went on to win races in the Thames, the Danube, Boston Harbor and the Seine River between 1905 and 1907 and became one of the pivotal figures in the history of swimming.<\/p>\n

She was instrumental in the evolution of women\u2019s swimwear and famous for her advocacy of the right of women to wear a one-piece bathing suit, which was a controversial topic in the early 20th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n

Her life story inspired the MGM classic Million Dollar Mermaid starring her heir apparent Esther Williams and was also inducted in the International Swimming Hall of Fame (1974).<\/p>\n

Maroubra lifesaver Renford became the King of the Channel for his 19 crossings and was instrumental in promoting the extraordinary love affair Australians have with the English Channel.<\/p>\n

If Renford is the King then McCardel is the undisputed queen of the Channel for her 32 crossings so far \u2013 including a non-top triple crossing and those 33rd<\/sup> and 34th<\/sup> crossings in her sights over the next two weeks – we wish her well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Olympian McGill became the first Australian to cross the Channel in 1965 while Manly\u2019s John Koorey was the first Australian man to make it in 1969.<\/p>\n

Taylor Smith became Australia\u2019s first world open water champion at the 1991 World Championships over 25km, braving a jellyfish infested Swan River and among other extraordinary swims won the Manhattan Island Marathon five times, breaking the world record in 1995 for swimming the 48\u00a0km distance in five hours, 45 minutes and 25 seconds.<\/p>\n

She also played a pivotal role through her role as the Fina Open Water Convenor in adding the 10km marathon to the Olympic program in 2008.<\/p>\n

Queensland\u2019s Trent Grimsey, a silver medallist over 25km at the Fina World Championships in 2009 holds the world record for the fastest crossing of the English Channel of six hours 55 minutes, set in 2012.<\/p>\n

Convenor of the AMSHOF Management and Selectors, Chris Guesdon said: \u201cMany in the open water swimming community came to the conclusion that Australia should have its own Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince Annette Kellerman set the scene in the English Channel over a century ago Australia has produced many superb marathon swimmers and contributors who have had history-making careers encompassing events both in Australia and abroad.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo in recognition of them by our sport in one place is essential for history and the preservation of achievements in our sport.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith this in mind, a founding group was formed to formalise the project.\u201d<\/p>\n

The AMSHOF Management and Selectors is a community-based group from the marathon swimming community from five Australian States.<\/p>\n

They are:\u00a0 the Executive Officer of Swim Australia & the Australian Swimming Coaches & Teachers Association Gary Toner (Qld); International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame Honourees Melissa Roberts (Cunningham, VIC; Tamara Bruce (WA), David O’Brien OAM (NSW), Chris Guesdon (TAS) (Convenor)<\/p>\n
