Are you loving the Olympics ? I am. It has been a fantastic week of sport. The opening ceremony was just so spectacular and the quality of action that has followed has been awesome. Nicole Cook finally gets a long overdue Gold. We get a silver in the ladies time trial and then we get a gold in the pool with one of the most exciting swim races ever! I say one of the most exciting as I now have 'the' most exciting. Yes, you have guessed it, the mens relay... I am not American but I was screaming at the TV for that finish. What a come back.... I am so pleased for Phelps. I want him to get those 8 golds. He has to rank as one of the most supreme athletes; ever!! He is up there with Lance Armstrong, Mohammed Ali and so on... to dominate a sport in such a way in 2008 is nothing short of miraculous. It's not only about his winning but his versatility in the pool. He literally has no weakness... He certainly will be around in 2012 for the next Olympics and he is talking of changing distances. I wonder how he would do in a Triathlon ?
