One of just three women to win multiple individual seasons, Jenny is already in elite territory despite only having been on three seasons.
Her first season on War of the Worlds 2 showed flashes of excellence, as she outswam every woman in the Hooked Mission and won an elimination against Nicole B. But she got bounced late in the season, losing to Tori D in Hall Brawl.
She dominated Total Madness, making four tribunals (including individual wins in the toughest missions of the season, Battle Lines and Running Out of Time) and defeating Jenn L and Dee in eliminations. In the final, she defeated not only Kaycee, Bayleigh and Melissa, but also all the men.
Her Battle of the Eras season wasn’t quite as dominant, but she still won two individual missions and won eliminations over Aneesa and Aviv. Her excellent swimming showed up again in the final, as she won four of the seven stages.
Jenny is clearly in the discussion for greatest female competitor in Challenge history, but with a sample size of just three seasons she lands just outside the top five for me.
