Jasmine Harrison, 23, explains what it was like to spend three months swimming the length of the UK.
Jasmine Harrison covered distances of up to 27 nautical miles in one day during her swim
Those idyllic scenes were the exception rather than the rule on her epic journey, which saw her spending up to 12 hours in the sea each day in all manner of conditions. "Leaving the Isle of Man I was followed by a basking shark, it wasn't going to eat me but it was still very scary," she says. From first entering water in western Cornwall on 1 July to reaching the top of Scotland on 18 October, her support boat, named Crews Control, became her home and its rotating 20-person volunteer crew, her family."While looking for a kayaker I just went on Instagram, typed in the relevant hashtags to see who was posting nearby and then asked them if they wanted to kayak for me.
In 2021 she became the youngest woman in the world to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean, so now has a yearly pattern of breaking records to keep up.
