Diana Nyad, who is turning 63 tomorrow, braved the waters again in her latest attempt to swim from Cuba to Flordia, but jellyfish stings cut the dream short again :( Remarkable effort though from a great woman

Simply amazing. Just staying awake for 60 hours straight would be very hard on the average person. Swimming for that long at any age is an incredible feat of endurance.

She's such a fighter! I love it! I hope she recovers soon.
