My parents emailed me about my cousin (2ND cousin) being in the Olympics for Canada. How cool is that. I think she competes next week and am looking forward to watching.
She is one of only four athletes to win six gold medals at a single commonwealth game. She is also on the list for the 50 sexiest athletes of the 2008 Olympics. I am not sure how her parents feel about that one, but all I can say is how the hell did I miss the athletic and good looks genes in this family. Damn, my parents!!!!
You got to give respect to someone that has practiced her whole life for a shot at the Olympics. Her family as well. All the sacrifice for something few achieve. Even if she does not get a medal, she has made it further then most of the population. But, it looks good for her.
I searched and found her blog, check it out
Make sure you watch till the end, she throws the ball very high and catches it with her legs. I can't even catch a pass on the basketball court from my son.....
Hoola Hoop to the next level
