The Grand Rapids-area couple got under way Tuesday from Two Rivers, Wis. They plan to swim to the Big Point Sable Lighthouse at West Michigan's Ludington State Park.

The hope was to complete the swim in 30 to 36 hours. That would put them in Ludington on Wednesday afternoon or night.

Both were members of Ohio University swim teams and say they suffered from postpartum depression following the births of their children, now 11 and 9.
