A Year of Days: Day 206 - Plucky Lady

Paimpont hosted a triathlon today and I was particularly taken by this plucky lady competitor - you can see her enjoyment of the event despite her obvious handicap. I also have images of her in the run but none, unfortunately, in the swim - that I would have liked to have seen.
Nice capture. I bet she was a cyclist before the injury.

Great shot of triumph over adversity.

The young lady who lost her arm to a shark a few years ago still surfs and was on the Amazing Race. Amazing how some people respond to adversity.

@yrhenwr I've since learned that she is Canadian and has twice been Handisports World Triathlon Champion... and she's no longer in the first flush of youth as you can see.

A photo that tells a story of dedication.
