Two Victoria swimmers set to make two epic swims

Once just isn’t enough for Susan Simmons.
She is intent on crossing Juan de Fuca Strait two times during an upcoming long-distance swim, which would make her the first swimmer from Victoria to Port Angeles and back in a continuous effort.
“It’s never even been attempted,” said Simmons, 53.
Simmons said swimming in cold water like that in the strait helps control her multiple sclerosis, which she has had for more than two decades.
She hopes to start her journey at 11 a.m.
