thinksinpictures asked: “Is anyone aware of any other athletic accomplishment by a woman, in any other sport, that no man has been able to replicate?”
To answer your question, I believe the well-known open water swimmer, Lynne Cox, has a few accomplishments of this nature to her credit. She has set a few English Channel records man or woman, and is the only person ever to swim one-mile in Antarctic waters wearing only a standard bathing suit.
These sites explain her accomplishments in greater detail:

Hope these prove interesting!
