Description
Nick Pelletier, a Canadian adventurer and endurance athlete, initially aspired to be a professional baseball player. However, a concussion forced him into years of recovery, leading him to abandon his baseball dreams. Inspired by his triathlete father, Nick redirected his passion into long-distance endurance adventures, including cycling across the U.S. and undertaking multi-day swimming challenges.
In his latest feat, Nick swam over 100 kilometers across a Canadian lake, a challenge that took several attempts over several years. What makes this accomplishment even more remarkable is that, at one point, Nick faced a shoulder injury, persevering through the daunting distance using only one arm.
