I consider this lady amazing. Not necessarily from a sports perspective, but for her resilience, courage, fortitude and sheer will power to accomplish and succeed. What do you guys think about her?

I'm thinking of starting a thread about all the great explorers and alternative sportsmen and women. Men like Sir Edmund Hillary and others. What do you think?

Dissident, she was a lady of iron will & strength. They don't make many like that these days.
