Czech swimmer to participate in Bering Strait relay swim

Czech swimmer Zdeněk Tlamicha will participate in an international relay swim across the Bering Strait. 40 swimmers from 14 countries will attempt to cross the 86-kilometre wide strait between Cape Dezhnev in Russia and Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska, next weekend. They expect to cover the distance in between 40 and 50 hours. No such swim relay has ever crossed the Bering Strait before.
