"The one-of-a-kind athlete" —Glamour Magazine Woman of the Year

"She proved by her courage how close to each other our peoples live." —President Gorbachev

"Cox's life has been a form of knightly quest, and her spirit has remained essentially romantic."
—New Yorker Magazine

"Cox does her thing in conditions that would have the Green Bay Packers crying for help."
—Santa Barbara Independent

Cox is not interested in promoting her own exceptional ability so much as the abilities of human beings in general. This trait not only makes her a gracious sportswoman, it has also served her very well as she has sought to use her endurance swims as a diplomatic tool to break down barriers between peoples and countries. It also makes her a hell of a writer - observant, supremely aware and endowed with a roaringly sharp sense of humour."
—The Independent Britain

of sustained success. At age 15 she first swam the English Channel and broke the men's and women's world records, and by the time she was in her 40's she swam in 32 degree water to the shores of Antarctica. And she is still going strong. Lynne explains how she achieved this and how you can build upon yourown achievements and reach beyond what you've done before.
