This time she was in the water for 30 of her 31 days afloat, swimming six hours a day and covering up to 17 miles a day. In total she swam for 139 hours and 25 minutes, covering 300.86 miles of the 2,186-mile trip. That's about 50 more miles than last year's swim, an endeavor that harvested a media maelstrom over her claim to have "swam across the Atlantic."
At least the press release and or reporting got it right this time.

As the article makes clear there are no rules on what constitutes swimming accross the Atlantic. But I think the article should say "endurance swimmer DOES NOT cross Atlantaic - again."
That said, I cannot help but like the spirit of this women.
