Could You Swim 32 Miles In Cold Dark Water With Lamprey Eels?

Looking for a really cool movie for swimmers and swimming parents to watch?  Check out Heart: The Marilyn Bell Story.  It's about a sixteen year old girl who swims across Lake Ontario (32 MILES!) and her battle with the elements, lamprey eels, and exhaustion.  It is also really interesting to see the mind games that her coach plays to get the most out of Marilyn.  You can check out some info here on Marilyn and here for the movie.
