There are far too many for me to pick just one I admire personally as I think all of you are swell. 
I still think our 2 tri-athletes rock. I can't even fathom what they did.

As an athlete...Coach gets my vote.
As for personally? I couldn't rank any one of you above the other. I admire many things in so many of you.

Certain people excel at certain aspects of athletics. It's too hard to nail down just one person. There are lots of y'all that impress me.

Ditto my above answer except substitute personality for athletics.

another vote for happy2tri - awesome endurance with mental and physical strength
personally - gotta be shelfie - not many people know that he's a recovering fecalholic and he's come such a long way that I'm way proud of him - no more flinging/smearing poo or sedatives in his life

Athletic RRer: I'm in admiration of all of you RRers. Being a newbie to this forum and seeing what some of you do is absolutely incredible! I look up to you and have been learning through your experiences to help me with my Half Mary/Tri training. So...you all are awesome! 
Personally Admire: So far I admire everyone here. Everyone I have met at this time has been nice, encouraging, welcoming and friendly. I try to look at each person as being unique and appreciate what I can learn from others. A few have gone out of their way to assist me in my quest to be better at UBB or just letting me know that I suck at it. Thanks for going out of your way guys!

there are absolute too many....everyone fits into each category.
Today I will single out 2:
athlete: Elkid. I am so impressed on how she has evolved as a runner, not just when running but as a lifestyle. As a fellow runner, it makes me feel good just to read her posts, her confidence and excitement jumps out at you.
personal: I can't split the twins. They've had their share of ups and downs since I've come aboard here and yet Joe and Greg always make time to send a "how's it going" message out.

If I had to single one person out, runaroundsue gets my vote for athlete - she's at another level from most of us.
rolling rock and joe are tied for most personal admiration.
