In August 2007, 29-year-old Indian marathon swimmer Pahuja Meenakshi visited Switzerland to attend the 20th International Self-Transcendence Marathon Swim, from Rapperswil to Zurich in Lake Zurich. She managed to finish the distance of 26.4 k in 10:48 hours, and placed 5th in the main women's category. We had the chance to interview her before the competition and include some pictures from the race. This is LIFE Voices No. 9
