I've been watching the Olympics (something I've never done much before). I was extremely impressed with the opening ceremonies on Friday, especially the way the Olympic Torch was lit with the guy running sideways around the top of the stadium.
The gymnasts are something to behold, especially those on the still rings. Anything they do is 100% their effort. The performance of the one Chinese guy left my jaw agape. How in the world do they do that?
Then, that'ssome mighty fast swimming. In some cases, the top four finishers ALL break the world record.
Then, there is that Michael Phelps show. Once he gets going, no one is going to catch him.
I'm of course, pulling for the good 'ol USA, but China is going to be quite an obstacle to overcome. Especially since their athletes are essentially pros, having been in train since before age 5.
Regardless, these are some unbelievable efforts for all concerned.
