I know! While sitting next to my non-gymmie DD last night who is June '05 the thought crossed my mind that a kid only 6 months older than her could compete in Tokyo! Time flies....Sigh, the flame is out the games are closed. I love the Olympics, I will miss them until next time.
I will be happy to get more sleep though. Those late nights were killing me and my family.
Interestingly here, the para-olympics are a really big deal, loads of airtime, lots of GB athletes and there is a huge whoo ha in the press about them being cut. Such a shame - the funding was there 2 weeks ago and now its not?
We have great coverage of them normally, and I would recommend anyone who can get it watches the "The Last Leg" team, fantastic.
I'm a physical therapist, so naturally I looooove the special Olympics. I am so disappointed that they do not get more coverage here...I had no idea they were cut this year...as in, there are no special Olympics at all this year?!?!Interestingly here, the para-olympics are a really big deal, loads of airtime, lots of GB athletes and there is a huge whoo ha in the press about them being cut.

Also Paralympics and Special Olympics are different. Paralympics involves athletes with physical disabilities, Special Olympics specifically requires athletes to have cognitive disabilities.I'm a physical therapist, so naturally I looooove the special Olympics.

Oh goodness gracious. I know the difference and have no idea why I said special instead of para brain fart! I'll blame it on first day of school nerves!!Also Paralympics and Special Olympics are different.
