of the currents in the Florida Straits Nyad would have to last 60 hours if everything went perfectly For two years this dream of swimming from Cuba to Florida had been part of her every waking hour She was about to turn 60 I wanted to be filled with commitment to the best of myself so that 1 wasn t looking back later saying What have I done with my life says Nyad Those extreme physical struggles are not new to her In 1974 25 year old Nyad became the first person to swim across Lake Ontario against the current A year later Nyad s 28 mile swim around the island of Manhattan made the front page of the New York Times Physically I m stronger I weigh a lot more Nyad said after a training swim in Key West in June There are also mental advantages to being older says Steven Munatones an expert in swimming Feeling a sharp pain in her right shoulder she changed the angle of stroke 划 telling herself to go gently until her hand caught the water In the 17th hour she swam over to the boat and the crew located a pain reliever Nyad took it She lay on her back rolled onto her belly and continued swimming and then she d turn on her back again gasping unable to fill her lungs I m trying to make it I m barely going forward I feel so sick This has been my dream forever but I can hardly make it another hour Nyad told David Marchant the boat s navigator 领航员 Between the 23rd and 27th hours Nyad had gone just five miles OK Diana I m going to touch you and it s going to be over Stoll said Nyad agreed And with that 29 hours and 43 minutes after she d leaped into the water the swim came to an end She just wouldn t quit It was more amazing to see her not make it the way she fought than if everything had gone exactly right and she d made it the whole way says Mark Sollinger who piloted Nyad s lead boat At a press conference in Key West after being pulled onto the support boat Nyad choked back tears and said Sometimes the will is so strong But I was shaking and freezing and I thought There s no mind over matter anymore I think I m going to have to go to my grave without swimming from Cuba to Florida But when Nyad returned home to Los Angeles the pain began to fade Something says to me
