The International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame (IMSHOF) is different from most sports halls \u2013 Honorees do not have to be retired to be inducted.\u00a0 The sport is often a lifetime activity \u2013 50 years in some cases. One example, Honoree Michael P. Read, MBE<\/a> – Class of 1978 swam the English Channel 33 times between 1969 and 2004 and other marathons until 2018.\u00a0 All 13 of the IMSHOF Honorees – Class of 2024 now become part of the IMSHOF family. They will already have met with; competed against; helped or been helped by other Honorees.\u00a0 One of the largest Honoree gatherings took place at the Induction and Awards Ceremony in London (see photo):\u00a0 30 individual Honorees and representatives of 6 Honoree organizations.<\/p>\n

This leads to incredible accomplishments in the sport by individuals after they become Honorees:<\/p>\n

Going back 90 years or so, Class of 2024 Honoree Pauline Jackson<\/a> would have been at the Canadian National Exhibition races at the same time as Honorees:\u00a0 Gertrude Ederle,\u00a0Ernst Vierkoetter,\u00a0George Young, Georges Michel<\/strong>, and\u00a0William “Bill” Goll<\/strong>. \u00a0She was also a member of the International Professional Swimmers’ Association which met in New York City \u2013 where she lived.\u00a0 It is likely that she met other Honoree members:\u00a0 Norman Ross, William “Bill” Sadlo Jr., Eva Morrison, Charlotte “Lottie” Schoemmell, Henry Sullivan<\/strong>, and William Wrigley Jr<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
