Default Anna Tunnicliffe wins Gold

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Tunnicliffe

Anna Tunnicliffe was born on October 17, 1982 in Doncaster, England.
When Anna was a child her parents owned a yacht and this is where she
learned to like sailing. She and her family moved to the United States
at the age of 12 and lived in Perrysburg, Ohio. There she attended
Perrysburg High School and joined the North Cape Yacht Club where she

------------------------------------

raced Optimists and other small boats for the next 5 years. Then in
1999 she began sailing the Laser Radial. Her first event in this boat
was at the Leiter Cup in Detroit, Michigan. Despite her small build
she advanced to the Smythe Finals for her area, where she was the only
woman sailing. She participated in cross country, swimming, and track
at the varsity level. In her senior year she won district track
championships in the 800 meter and set a new high school record of 2
minutes 17.56 seconds. After a hard decision between sailing and
track, she decided to go to the Old Dominion University to study and
sail. As a student at ODU she contributed greatly to the sailing
community.

I hope you posers noticed that she belongs to my yacht club. I know
her, and she's been on my boat.

NCYC, where champions are made.

Of course not. She's a Limey, not a Hungarian warrior.

None of your people are safe.
