Ana Marcela Cunha not only defended her 25 km world title, but she collected her seventh career world championship medal with her 5 hour 13 minute victory in today's 25 km race.

She has demonstrated her prowess in short sprints of 5 km, her teamwork in the team event, and her stamina in the 25 km marathon swim. She is flat-out a competitor, a racer who always positions herself for victory.

15 years ago, Angela Maurer won her first world championship medal off the shores of Waikiki (Hawaii). Over the last decade and a half, the 40-year-old has consistently medaled in flat rowing basins, warm bays, and rough seas against the world's fastest marathon swimmers.
