90 Days Until the Summer Olympics!

Friday May 9, 2008

Yippee!! In just under 3 months we will get to watch athletes from around the world compete at their passions. It seems like just yesterday that I was watching the 2004 Olympics in Athens, Greece. Well it's that time again and of course, this site will be highly focused on synchronized swimming...um...I mean basket weaving...no that's not it...how about crochet? Alright, I better cut it out before I insult some people. You know what we will be focusing on: Olympic Canoe / Kayak and Rowing.

If you are new to the Olympic Paddling or just aren't too familiar with the events, I have good news for you. I am here to help bring you up to speed. Come to this site to learn the basics as well as to get the play-by-play as the games progress. Why not begin getting acquainted with the events and paddlers by learning about the past men's C-1 & C-2 500m and 1000m Flatwater races?
