Diana Nyad, aged 64

Just completed the first swim from Cuba to Florida, without a cage. This was a lifelong dream of hers. I have to say, I am so proud of a woman of my generation for making her dream come true. It reinforces my belief that all of us, here on Fit Pal can reach our goals and live our dreams.:flowerforyou:

    Amazing achievement!

    Certainly puts things into perspective and makes you think .... I always think the same when I see people in their later years completing marathons!

    I was totally amazed about this when I read it. What an awesome thing to do..and her age just shows that numbers are
    just that...a number. We can do anything we put our mind to...if we want it bad enough.
