Recently I watched a new movie that is streaming on Disney Plus called “Young Woman and the Sea”. I’ll be honest, I originally did not want to watch this movie, but my family insisted we all watch it together and I am so happy I agreed. This movie is about a woman called Gertrude Ederle who was the first woman to swim the English Channel. She broke a record at the time by swimming its 33.7km in 14 hours and 31 minutes. This was faster than the only 5 other men who had succeeded before her.
