Five years ago, she smoked two packs a day and weighed over 220 lbs. Today, she won a bronze medal at the UCI Track Masters World Championships in England. There were 10 women in her age group in her event (the 2K pursuit - to put it into running terms, basically it feels like a 10K, in other words, nothing but hell for a long time and then you die.) She placed 3rd in qualifications and then in the finals, finished 3rd.
I'm so, so, so, so, so proud of her. And the coolest thing about Jane, she makes you think that you are just as equally as capable of greatness as she is. She's so supportive, so encouraging and an amazing person to have as a friend.
