Speaking of which, this man would be a great candidate for that:

16 hours 46 minutes to finish his marathon especially impressive considering 1000 people didn't cross the finish line at all.

As for Devils'Advocate, obviously welcomed to your opinion, but while it may not be the most tactfully way done I don't think there was any malice in her slogan. I'm sure you know much better than I do about how great a motivator positive messages are but that doesn't mean there isn't room for anything that isn't "sunshine, rainbows and puppies." It was a simple question to get people thinking, that was far from the first time we've seen it, if people want to over-analyze the context or intention that is on them, not her. And besides if it changed even 1 person's attitude than it was a success as I believe anyone who reacted negatively about it were out of her control.
