Starting in the town of Kassel, 33-year-old Pia Marie Witt, 58-year-old Wilfried Arnold and their ornithic companions will swim down the Fulda and Weser rivers, hoping to reach the North Sea port of Bremerhaven by mid-September.

The pair says that the journey is about self-fulfillment. "It's our version of the pilgrimage to Santiago," Arnold said.
Witt and Arnold aim to swim 10 to 15 km per day - an order too tall for the seven runner ducks, which will swim for about 20 minutes a day, following by car or boat when exhaustion kicks in.
