62 Year Old Aborts Swimming Attempt ...
 
.... quite staggering really ......
.
.
.
.
US endurance athlete Diana Nyad has abandoned her attempt to swim 103 miles (166km) from Cuba to Florida, after being stung by a dangerous jellyfish.

She turned around and swam back after about 49 miles after doctors warned that another sting from a Portuguese Man-Of-War could be life-threatening.

The 62-year-old had swum in shark-infested waters after setting out from Havana on Friday.

Bloody good going for a 62 year old!!

Pete, she's old enough to be your granddaughter :D

I was just thinking that she may be a hot catch for me, but she is 11 years younger so I'm not sure I wouldn't be accused of cradle snatching! :(

Are you getting younger? I seem to remember you saying you were 78 some time ago.

Not been whizzing around at the speed of light have you Pete?

Les ;)

Now, Les .. you know that I am 73 - I've never said I was 78!

I'm still a little younger than you :D ;)

I am surprised you should say that, you don't look it! Not on that photo you posted anyway.

Les :D

Since my health scare and my hospital stay I have lost 15% of my weight ..... I can get lost behind a lampost now ;)

Leslie 27 September 2011 12:50 PM

I am trying to catch up with you Pete.

Les ;)
