A St. Catharines woman completed her swim across Lake Ontario this morning.
Christine Arsenault, 35, made it from Niagara-on-the-Lake to Toronto in 22 hours and 22 minutes, said boat crew member Doug Howard. Arsenault’s Twitter reported a time of 22:33.
Howard said while the weather was clear and pristine for the most part, at about 2 a.m. conditions began to sour. Arsenault was fighting waves four to five feet high for the last four or five hours of her run, he said.
More to come.
