I remember getting to my elementary school early so that I could play with my friends on the ice that had formed on the blacktop. I liked to pretend to be Tara Lipinski the most, but sometimes was Michelle Kwan.
With no blacktop to "skate" on now, I sit on the couch in a blanket and watch.
It's amazing that I will start to breathe heavy with someone as they approach the finish line.. just because they live in the same country as me... but I do, and I think that is why the Olympics are a powerful reminder of country, of dedication to a sport, and how the world can be united.
Plus, snowboard cross is just way too cool.
Go USA!
