Diana NYAD swim to Cuba more than thirty years later, at the age of 61 years, plans to attempt another feat: 103 miles swimming from Cuba to Florida - a bath, which he completed in 1978 and 2010 due to bad time.
Diana Nyad is one I can not really believe. For 10 years, between the ages of 20 and 30, Diana was one of the greatest long distance swimmers in the world. Some of the pools were more than 30 continuous hours - not once out of the water to eat or sleep. He swam on the island of Manhattan set a new record, also swam 100 miles from the island of Bimini to Florida. Despite all these achievements Diana has always been haunted by a failed attempt to swim from Cuba to Florida in 1978. The waters were too hard and went completely off course. After leaving the water forever.
Diana NYAD swim to Cuba is now 61 and she is now trying to get the only thing that has escaped - A 103-mile swim continues to Cuba for Florida. And this time it will do cage-free shark.
Aging can do strange things to people. You may be given at that time that I had never felt before. Aging can also give you something to prove.
As an aging athletic person, I think it's more inspiring to be a better athlete 61 to a master 20.diana NYAD swim to Cuba at age 61, you are competing against time and the inevitability. For Diana, before she set foot in Cuba, I think she has already won this competition.
