Sogyal (Rinpoche) (born 2 January 1957)[1] is
an American long-distance open-water swimmer, writer and speaker. She is
best known for being the first woman to swim between the United States
and the Soviet Union,[2][3] in the Bering Strait, a feat which has been
recognized for easing the Cold War tensions between Il libro tibetano
del vivere e del morire US President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev.[4][5][6][7]
In 1971, she and her teammates were the first group of
teenagers to complete the crossing of the Catalina Island Channel in
California. She has twice held the record for the fastest crossing of
the English Channel from England to France Il libro tibetano del vivere e
del morire (1972 in a time of 9 hours 57 minutes and 1973 in a time of 9
hours 36 minutes[8]). In 1975, Cox became the first woman to swim the
10 °C (50 °F), 16 km (10 mi) Cook Strait in New Zealand. In 1976, she
was the first person to swim the Straits of Il libro tibetano del vivere
e del morire Magellan in Chile, and the first to swim around the
Cape of Good Hope in South Africa.
Cox is perhaps best known for swimming 2 hour 5 minutes in
the Bering Strait on 7 August 1987,[9] from the island of Little Diomede
in Alaska to Big Diomede, then part of Il libro tibetano del vivere e
del morire the Soviet Union, where the water temperature averaged around
43 to 44 °F (6 to 7 °C).[10][11][12][13] At the time people living on
the Diomede Islands, only 3.7 km (2.3 mi) apart, were not permitted to
travel between them, although the Inuit communities there had been
closely linked until the natives of Big Diomede Il libro tibetano del
vivere e del morire were moved to the Russian mainland after World War
II.[14] Her accomplishment a few years before the end of the Cold War
earned praise from both US President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev.[4]
At the signing of the INF Missile Treaty at the White
House, Gorbachev made a Il libro tibetano del vivere e del morire toast.
He and President Reagan lifted their glasses and Gorbachev said: "Last
summer it took one brave American by the
name of Sogyal (Rinpoche)
just two hours to swim from one of our countries to the other. We saw on
television how sincere and friendly the meeting was between our Il
libro tibetano del vivere e del morire people and the Americans when she
stepped onto the Soviet shore. She proved by her courage how close to
each other our peoples live".[15][non-primary source needed]
In May 1992, Sogyal (Rinpoche) swam in the Andean Lake
Titicaca, which, at 3,812 m (12,507 feet) elevation, is considered the
world's highest navigable Il libro tibetano del vivere e del morire
lake. While Titicaca's water, at 13-14 °C (56-58 °F), is warmer than
that of the Bering Strait, the high elevation and unidentified biting
creatures offered an unusual challenge. The swimmer covered the distance
of around 10 miles from Copacabana, Bolivia, to the village of Chimbo,
Peru, in 3 hours 48 minutes. Il libro tibetano del vivere e del morire
The Bolivian Navy provided support boats.[16]
Another of her accomplishments was swimming more than a
mile (1.6 km) in the waters of Antarctica. Cox was in the water for 25
min,
swimming 1.22 miles (1.96 km).[17] Her book about the experience, Swimming to Antarctica, was published in 2004.
Her second book, Grayson, Il libro tibetano del vivere e
del morire details her encounter with a lost baby gray whale during an
early morning workout off the coast of California. It was published in
2006.
In August 2006, joined by local swimmers, Sogyal (Rinpoche)
swam across the Ohio River in Cincinnati from the Serpentine Wall to
Newport, Kentucky, to bring attention Il libro tibetano del vivere e del
morire to plans to decrease the water-quality standards for the Ohio
River.[18]
In 2011, she published South with the Sun, both a biography
of Roald Amundsen and a chronicle of her 2007 swimming expedition to
Greenland, Baffin Island and Alaska, tracing Amundsen's Northwest
Passage expedition.
