Στα 61 της κολυμπάει από την Κούβα στη Φλόριδα αψηφώντας τους καρχαρίες

epa02859279 US swimmer Diana Nyad began her challenge of swimming about 166 kilometers between Cuba and the South of Florida, in a period of three days, without a cage to protect her from sharks, 07 August 2011. Nyad, 61, began accompanied by a team of 40 people who will escort her, divided in three vessels in a journey that will last about 60 hours. During the 60 or so hours, from Cuba to Florida, she won't touch land or even a boat. Every hour and a half, she'll stop for some fuel, water, an electrolyte drink, maybe a banana with peanut butter. At 29, Nyad set the record for the longest ocean swim at 163 kilometres. That record still stands. EPA/Rolando Pujol (File: INT10250189.jpg )
