Lowenna North explained what challenges she tackled while swimming between Dover and Calais.
"There are points on long swims where you get to the stage of wanting to stop, everyone does," said Lowenna North.
Lowenna - nicknamed the Ginger Swimmer due to her hair colour and passion for long-distance swimming - told the BBC there were points were she had to grit her teeth and power through, but it ended up being one of the "best days" of her life. She explained: "The bigger challenges were trying to read the tides and what my support crew wanted me to do from the boat - either going with the tide or going against the tide sort of thing."
"Half of my feeds I couldn't really eat because by the time I opened them a wave came over them and they were covered in sea water, but you've just got to grit your teeth and eat it sometimes."Lowenna North said battling with different tides and trying to eat and drink were big hurdles to overcome during the swim
