🏊♂️ At just 16, Maya has just swum the English Channel, raised $100,000 for Swim Across America, and has become one of the youngest swimmers to complete the Triple Crown of Open Water Swimming. 💪 She undertook the iconic English Channel swim and her other marathon swims to make waves to fight cancer and raise funds for the nonprofit Swim Across America which funds innovative cancer treatments and clinical trials. "There were points while I was swimming the Channel where I wanted to give up. I swam through schools of jellyfish and had a lot of stomach pain, but I kept thinking that this doesn’t compare to what kids with cancer face. That helped me find the strength to keep going." Maya is the epitome of grit, persistence, determination, passion, vision, heart, and strength. Read more about Maya's incredible story of facing adversity including a ski crash and discovery of a benign tumor on her pancreas, and the determination she has had since 9 years old to support cancer research. Triple Crown Journey: - July 13, 2024: one of the youngest to complete the English Channel (20.5 miles or 33 km) 11 hours and 39 minutes. - September 2021, at 14, she broke the record as the youngest woman in history to successfully swim the 20-mile Catalina Channel, finishing in 10 hours and 48 minutes. - In 2023, at 15, She was one of the youngest swimmers to successfully complete the 28.5-mile 20 Bridges swim around Manhattan, which took her 8 hours and 43 minutes.
