Approximately 400 people worldwide have completed the Triple Crown, which requires successful completion of the English Channel, Catalina Channel and 20 Bridges Swim around Manhattan Island.<\/p>\n<p>For Miller, the English Channel proved as much a mental challenge as a physical one. The final miles brought another major obstacle when Miller encountered a dense stretch of jellyfish and was repeatedly stung while approaching the French coast.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mentally this was one of the toughest swims I have ever done, simply because of the lead-up, booking it three years in advance, the weather windows, the waiting,&#8221; Carly Miller said. &#8220;We had terrible windy weather, so I was basically racing the entire swim. And then there&#8217;s the jellyfish minefield that goes for about five miles at the end, with millions of jellyfish, there&#8217;s no way around it. I was repeatedly stung but had to keep going.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Miller&#8217;s crossing was piloted by <strong>Rob Thompson<\/strong> aboard the <em>Anastasia<\/em>. Her crew included her husband, <strong>Matthew Gerbasi<\/strong>; friend <strong>Tammy Parrish<\/strong>, who traveled from Amsterdam; and <strong>Caroline Sims<\/strong> from the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>The accomplishment marks the culmination of a journey that extends far beyond swimming. After losing her mother to cancer, Miller learned of her own hereditary cancer risk and underwent a prophylactic double mastectomy. In the years that followed, she struggled with grief, depression and addiction before discovering open-water swimming at age 40- an experience she credits with transforming her life.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, Miller has taken on some of open-water swimming&#8217;s most demanding challenges. In addition to completing the three swims that make up the Triple Crown, she became the sixth person to complete the 27-mile Santa Monica Bay crossing and recently became the seventh swimmer to complete Lake Tahoe&#8217;s \u201c5 Tails of Tessie\u201d challenge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Open-water swimmer, coach and cancer-prevention advocate Carly Miller has successfully completed the English Channel, finishing the 32.9-kilometer (20.4-mile) crossing from England to France in 11 hours and 41 minutes (pending<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3915,"featured_media":652573,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-652572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-open-water"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\r\n<title>Carly Miller English Channel Swim to Cap Triple Crown<\/title>\r\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Carly Miller Completes English Channel Swim to Cap Open Water Triple Crown.
