S.F Businessman to Swim for 60 Hours Nonstop -- for No Reason​

​To the nonathlete, even a five-mile run or swim seems crazy. But here is a guy who can make even ultramarathoners look sane.

Jamie Patrick, a die-hard swimmer and owner of Patrick & Co. in San Francisco, is planning to swim 240 miles nonstop -- that's about 60 hours -- across the Sacramento River. Call him obsessed (his wife does) -- the 40-year-old says he is doing it because he feels like it. How very Forrest Gump of him.

But if he does complete this risky swim, then he will break the Guinness world record. The longest recorded swim is 50 hours.

soooo, I take it he's got insomnia? 60hrs of straight swimming without sleep seems a tad long?

I predict, he will look like a tuna when he is done.

They will have to net him out of the water into a boat.

This seems like a fishy character to me.
