Google maps doesn't offer many choices does it? Ever do any Iron Man competitions?

At least it's easier than flapping your arms and trying to fly.

I dunno man, 3462 miles is kinda far. I've swam 3400 miles before no problem, but that last 62 seems a little too much.

I love the Partial toll road part between steps 13 to 17. I was wondering how to train a car or truck to swim. Because if you can't then why would you need to pay a toll if your walking at that point. Never mentioned hire a car.

Jack was (and still is) an amazing man. The most recent picture I've seen of him is from 5 or 6 years ago and he still looks absolutely ripped at 90 years young. He proudly states, "I can't die, it would ruin my image!!"

ok, back on topic:
At least you won't have to take your shoes off at the airport
But you might have to strip off your tights at the beach...
