Theroux Completes 40-Mile Circumnavigation of Aquidneck Island
On September 26, Trent Theroux swam 40 miles around Aquidneck Island, home to Newport, Rhode Island, to raise money for RISE Above Paralysis - a non-profit focused on assisting families of people who have experienced spinal injuries.
Trent faced six-foot swells and headwinds during his roughly 18-hour swim, but he powered through and came ashore with a smile.
