I am a HUGE Olympics fan. I especially enjoy the summer Olympics (probably because I hate to be cold!). I am so excited to watch the awesome athletes from around the world do their thing. My husband makes fun of me for watching all the "background stories" that he thinks the networks put on there just for the women. Hey--I've caught him watching them, too! It's learning what makes these folks tick that so intrigues me! What gets them out of bed each day for that 5am workout? What makes them push through the pain to victory? I LOVE IT! I always want to increase my workouts and better my diet when I watch the Olympics. Ahh, to be as "cut" as those twenty-something runners! Oh--let's not forget that 41 year old sprint swimmer for the United States!! Talk about inspiring!
I just got this video clip from a friend. I may not be an Olympic athlete, but I can sure go the "extra mile" in my life. Take a look--it's well worth the watch!
