noun - Channel swimming is swimming in or across a broad Strait connecting two areas of sea, between two countries, or across a river or canal or any open body of water between land masses or islands. Channel swimming is generally considered to be marathon swimming but swims between land masses or islands less than 10 km (6.2 mi) are also considered to be channel swimming.
