In day 5 of London Olympics swimming, there was the 100m free style final race.  And Nathan Adrian from USA won it !!!  Highlights: Nathan Adrian Wins Gold In 100m Free  http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/swimming/highlights-nathan-adrian-wins-gold-in-100m-free.html   “ U.S. swimmer Nathan Adrian wins the men's 100m freestyle in dramatic fashion, out-touching James Magnusant by one one-hundredth of a second to earn gold. “  And Yannick Agnel was also in the race.  After seeing the race, I thought 1 to 6 can probably beat each other at any given time, because they all are almost like tie breaker in the end.  As we can see from the result below, swimmers 1 through 6 all came in at the exact same second !!!  The difference in times were by fractions of a second.  Seems that whoever has the best touch to the wall, wins !!!  Here is the result of the race 100m Freestyle , 1. Nathan ...

Most impressive woman gymnast for me this London Olympics is Viktoria Komova from Russia.  Especially her floor exercise in all-round was perfect ! Sooooooooo artistic and magically beautiful !!!!!  And the technical part was excellent, too.  Landed all the jumps perfectly and spins as well.  We already watched it many times last night. I’m so happy to find my new favorite gymnast because I haven’t been super impressed like this since long time ,since 1980’s Moscow Olympics.   Viktoria’s movements are naturally beautifully artistic and each part flows and connects smoothly to her next movement .   I think she really has natural artistic talent of movements which are really well-balanced.   I really love to see beautiful performance, so her floor exercise was a huge hit for me.  Ray noticed that Viktoria’s music was mixture of different music including Queen’s song “ the show must goes on “...

I wasn’t watching swimming until last Olympics, maybe only one Olympics when I was a little girl, the times when Mark Spitz was winning everything, because my dad was watching it.  But in this London Olympics, we both are very into it because curious to see Phelps VS Lochte .  I didn’t know about Ryan Lochte until this Olympics, but when I checked his career he was always behind Michael Phelps every Olympics although he was on the podiums with Phelps.  People were speculating about Michael Phelps , some say he didn’t want to compete in Olympics anymore and had another new plan for his life but his mother wanted him to compete so he went to London.  In the last Olympics in Beijing he won 8 gold medals.  In London, he was out of the medals in the first day of competition and Lochte won. However, after that, Phelps seems like he brought back his focus, and he has been winning Silver or Gold since then.  Yesterday, it was shame...

London Olympics game is just around the corner !  Watching Olympics game is one of our favorite things every 4 years, both Summer and Winter. It’s so exciting !  Because I think it’s a great motivation for our life to be inspired by world top athletes who have been working hard to do what they love and dream and challenge to be the world number one athletes. I love living with passion to get to our goals, no matter the result.  Another reason is we both love to see personalities through their performances.  Every Olympics, we can find a few inspiring athletes who have their original style, have strong charisma.  We are more interested to see their personality than who will win.  For summer Olympics, both of our favorite Olympics sports are gymnastics , and track & field.   Until 2004 Olympics, I didn’t realized that we can find someone who has interesting personality and originality in track & field, because unlike gymnasti...
