I love the Olympics. Every single person competing in these games is an extreme outlier. In talent, dedication and strength. And every single person has done absolutely everything in their power — dedicated their lives — the past few years to be at their very best here and now.
I’m thinking about as I watch Julien Alfred carry a small nation on her shoulders when she wins the 100 metres and claims Saint Lucia’s first ever Olympic medal. A gold, no less.
The winning stories get the most attention. But every single athlete competing in these games represents a remarkable story. I wish I could see and hear them all!
