Even if you’re not a sports fan, you probably have seen some of the 2010 Winter Olympics being held in Canada, specifically Vancouver, British Columbia. The United States is currently leading the medal race with 14, followed by Germany with 10, and France with 7. Last night I watched Shaun White win the Gold Medal in the Snowboard Men’s Halfpipe. WOW! His first run earned him 46.8 points (out of a possible 50). No need to make a second run, but he did. Why? For some people, it’s not just about winning. Listen to what Shaun said after the run.
I’ll be posting about other events as the games continue.
Let me know which event is your favorite: [polldaddy poll=2721283]
I like the figure skating events. Mostly because it integrates between technique and aethestic. The olympics is over now and I feel that I haven’t had enough of it!
