The big O

and I don't mean me...

Michael Phelps, what can I say, the man is an amazing athlete....aparently he eats 12000 calories a day as opposed to our normal 2000.

Then there is Bolt....he broke the world record, jogging.

I can't run as fast as the milers do to catch the freaking bus, let alone the speed these 100 meter runners are hitting.

I was mighty glad the Kenyan got the silver in the women's marathon as well. There's a sport I never ever want to try. Never.

Wow.

Not only that, but they showed the films the kids made at camp and they were F.U.N.N.Y.

and we had friends over all evening and more are coming tomorrow!!!!

Two, well three more days of work. Yahooo!

Hope Chuck is fairing well.

I am in AWE of those athletes. Simply amazing.

Mmichele, I too would love to see his daily menu...it would be astonishing, I gather he starts the day off with a five egg omlete...

Hula, they are amazing, some of them simply blow me away, and not just the medal types either. We Canucks are having a little trouble in the medal hunt, but it is great to watch. I have to say, you are inspiring me to try running (again). I hate it.

I think that so far, only two countries stand out in the medal run... unfortunately :/
