Leanne Harling set off from English shores just before 5am to swim to France. The sea was a little lumpy to start with, but after a couple of hours turned into perfect conditions. Sadly Leanne battled away for an amazing 15 hours and 54 minutes, before she was taken from the water 0.5 nautical miles from France, physically exhasted. We are all so proud of her, and are heartbroken that she got so close. Next time Leanne. Click here to see the photos
