Jul 24, 2014 Never, Ever Give Up
On September 22, 2013 Diana Nyad, a world record distance swimmer, approached the Key West shores after swimming for nearly 53 consecutive hours from the coast of Cuba. 53 HOURS. Just let that sink in for a bit. She had attempted this exact same swim four previous times but was forced to abandon them due to strong currents pushing her off course or pools of jelly fish stinging her to oblivion… while deadly sharks were also circling beneath her waiting to make a move. All of this at the young age of 64 years old. Dedication, preparation, and an unrelenting level of commitment, Diana is the epitome of never giving up.
