Even though the great Michael Phelps had won eight medals in swimming at the pool, the sheer physical grace, speed and power was masked by the water. Not so at the track. Bolt’s powerful but lithe physique was displayed for all to see, 91,000 at the Bird’s Nest Stadium and billions around the world. Even a four year old could imagine being that fast because running is something we do soon after we learn to walk. Bolt’s times were faster than anyone has ever run before and at age 22, he is young enough to run even faster. The world waits with bated breath for what he will run next. Stay tuned!

Encouraging words like “Champions are made at practice” would ring in our ears as we strove to become better at the task before us. Now, as the Olympics get underway in Beijing, China, the current climate is filled with negative words like ”drug-cheat” and “performance enhanced” as many athletes pursue their dreams of being an Olympic Champion or the best in the world and may be faced with the decision to take the shortest (and possibly quickest) route to stardom. However, many thousands of today’s athletes have found that the best shortcut to stardom is just plain old………. hard work.

Let the Games Begin!
