“I got hit over and over again, but I was right on the same pace as before. I thought I might have been going a little slower than before, but I was at 16 miles around the 7 hour mark. The jellyfish were hanging off of my arms on both sides. I had them on my hands too as I was trying to get them off. But I couldn’t get them off, their tentacles were wrapped around my arms. They were all over the place. Then I got hit right in the face and that really hurt. But the one which stung me on my ear is what is really hurting now.”

The path between Oahu and Kauai is the last major channel in the Hawaiian Islands to be uncrossed. Wow.

Woah!!!!
That does not look pleasant. I've read about Frayed Laces getting stung swimming in Hawaii too and I don't know how you would even keep going long enough to not drown.
Holy Crap! My coach saw her at a cafe in Oahu and posted a picture with her on FB (she swears she wasn't stalking her). That had to be so painful; my coach has been stung and wrote about it, but it was not as many as all that!!! Wow.
