Do You Have the Fever?
Welcome to the Today blog for all things Olympics! I’ll be trolling the web and finding the news on all things Olympian. And I’m not just talking Beijing 2008, Baby, I’m talking Olympic sports, Olympic athletes, Vancouver 2010, London 2012, Sochi 2014, and the 2016 race.
I love the Olympics because it strives to pursue an ideal world and an ideal sportsman/sportswoman–and to me, that’s not just about being a great athlete. It’s taking losses gracefully, it’s dedication, it’s joy of sport, it’s using your body to its fullest potential. Every two years we see the best of the best joyfully pursue their dreams. These athletes represent their countries, and for a couple of weeks, the world can get along and enjoy a sporting competition.
The Games bring hope. They bring hope of a better, more peaceful world. They bring hope that we can all strive to be our best. They bring hope in excellence. Every two years we see this excellence on display, and it causes a fever inside of me that I can never shake.
I look forward to bringing you my own excellence as I follow this movement. I look forward to reading your comments and enjoying the Olympics with you. Olympic Fever? Bring it!
