Winter Vinecki, 14, completes quest, becomes youngest ever to complete seven marathons on seven continents

When her father was diagnosed with prostate cancer, Winter Vinecki, then 9, started a nonprofit to raise money and awareness to fight the disease. On Sunday in Athens, Greece, she completed her quest to finish seven marathons on seven continents, becoming at 14 years old the youngest ever to accomplish the feat -- which she did to bring attention to her cause. My followup to her final marathon, after my original story on her this past May on ESPN.com's Endurance Sports section. http://espn.go.com/blog/endurance/post/_/id/1772/vinecki-completes-seven-continent-quest
