Sister Madonna Buder from Washington state is an inspiration in the triathlete and marathon world worldwide.

It is a blend of incredible womanly stamina combined with her faith.

Occasionally she does do some of these very difficult triatholons ..by running for someone else that she cares about.
Perhaps this could help some of us..when we walk, etc. for exercise and give us that extra motivation/strength.
