American Ninja Warrior is a television show that airs on NBC and the Esquire Network. The center of the show is a demanding obstacle course that requires phenomenal strength and agility. For six seasons, athletes have come to the show in search of fame and recognition of their abilities. This past week, for the first time, a woman completed the this brutal obstacle course.
Kacy Catanzaro if a 5-foot tall gymnast. Her height posed particular challenges, as many of the obstacles require a lot of reach. But Catanzaro, a former NCAA Southeast Regional Gymnast of the Year, had all of the strength and skill necessary to prevail.
