Diane Van Deren
Diane Van Deren is an American ultramarathon runner who won the Yukon Arctic Ultra 300 in 2009. In 2012 she set the world record for fastest time on the Mountains-to-Sea Trail in North Carolina (22 days, 5 hours and 3 minutes).
==Biography==
The second of four children born to Raymond and Judy Kobs in Omaha, Nebraska, the family moved to Littleton, Colorado in 1972. Diane played several sports from early childhood, being named to all-state teams in basketball, golf, and tennis, as well as winning Colorado state titles in golf and tennis. She attended Odessa College and University of Texas of the Permian Basin, where she earned a degree in speech communication, an All-American team designation for her singles tennis play, and won a National Junior College Doubles Championship before going on to play professional tennis. She married Scott Van Deren in 1983 and the couple went on to have three children.
Van Deren was diagnosed with epilepsy in her late 20s, caused by brain injury from an hour-long febrile seizure suffered at 16 months old. In February 1997, Van Deren underwent a partial right temporal lobectomy to remove the focal point of her seizures, determined to be on her right hippocampus. It created a blind spot in the upper left region of her vision〔 and left her with the effects of a right temporal lobe injury, including deficits in short-term memory and organizational skills.
A few years after her brain surgery, Diane entered her first 50-mile ultramarathon. She has been sponsored by The North Face since 2009.
