London 2012 Olympics - Athletics Day 5

While Brody was in NY I enjoyed my last Olympic event, which was the morning session of Athletics. The morning sessions are where most of the preliminary rounds are held so it wasn’t as exciting as the Saturday night session we attended.  The highlight from the day was seeing Usane Bolt run the 200m heat.

Overall our whole Olympic experience was amazing and it makes me want to go again in 4 years.  I just love the feeling you get from being in the Olympic Park because there is so much energy and everyone is so friendly, happy and helpful. The only thing I won’t miss are the crowds. 

*I also went to the USA House, which was located by the Royal Albert Hall.  I had to show my USA passport and go through security to enter but it had a steady stream of athletes and was the only place where you could buy Team USA Olympic apparel.
