Enjoying the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games

Over the last week I have spend many hours watching the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver. It's amazing to see such young men and women compete so hard with such focus and courage. None of us can rely comprehend how hard they have worked. How much they have sacrificed and how much time they have put into their sport. Sometimes even all of that is not enough.

Jeremy Wotherspoon is an example of enormous dedication. This amazing athlete is the "most successful male skater in World Cup history". Yet he has not been able to live up to such huge expectations. I'm not at all disappointed at performance, but extremely proud of what he has achieved throughout his career. This is why I am so excited about the Olympic Games.

Training for hours, devoting significant time and planning out future goals has much more meaning and when you think about people such as our Canadian Athletes. Check out the Olympic website and see what is happening.
