Alongside Florence, in one of the boats, her mother and her trainer offered encouragement. They told her it wasn’t much farther. But all she could see was fog. They urged her not to quit. She never had… until then. With only a half mile to go, she asked to be pulled out. Still thawing her chilled body several hours later, she told a reporter, “Look, I’m not excusing myself, but if I could have seen land I might have made it.” It was not tiredness or even the cold water that defeated her. It was the fog. She was unable to see her goal.

　　Two months later, she tried again. Despite the same dense fog, she swam with her faith intact and her goal clearly pictured in her mind. She knew that somewhere behind that fog was land and this time she made it.

　　Several days ago, I read a story about Florence Chadwick, who first failed to swim from Catalina Island to the California coast because of fog. However, trying again, she succeeded and became the first woman to make it, with her goal in mind despite dense fog/ though it was still foggy.
