"I have three messages:
1. We should never, ever give up.
2. You are never too old to chase your dreams.
3. It looks like a solitary sport, but it takes a team."
-Diana Nyad, American Swimmer
Reflection: It was pretty inspiring to see a person of that age overcome such a feat. She easily incorporated her messages in her swim from Cuba to Florida. When she made it to Florida, she demonstrated her will to never gave up. And she demonstrated that in her age she was still able to overcome that 53 hour swim, so it gives no reason for others to think they are too old to do a certain activity in which they have always wanted to do.
