So many Olympic choices...



... to choose from for inspiration. When 1992 Olympic medalist favorite Derek Redmond pulls a hamstring in his semi-final heat, his dreams and aspirations, years in the making, are finished. Many people would quit, but Derek , in a split second, has a new focus -- just finish. With his Dad racing from the stands to keep officials at bay and give Derek a shoulder to lean on, history is made...

I can see I will now have two members of your family whose blogs I will faithfully visit. (I am a big fan of Lisa's Stonehenge blog, and she just gave me the link to yours on mine.) She has been a great friend to me online, it would be amazing if I were to ever meet her in person one day. I feel like she's a great person.

Thanks for starting this one. You will DEFINITELY be a daily read of mine.
