Last Olympic Post

Am getting an idea re how hard athletes train for the Olympics.

This week Google has been posting interactive doodles (those nifty graphics you see that make up the word "Google" when you first login to make a search) around various sports themes. Depending on the doodle, you either use the forward and backward arrow keys, the space bar, or both. I totally suck at this! Guess I just can't move my digits fast enough. Have never made it to the three-star level. Ever. Obtained two stars in hurdles and in soccer - after several attempts (some games are a bit hard to figure out at first, at least for non-gamer me). Produced rather large cracks on the front of the kayak during the obstacle course, and left the athletes looking more than a bit dejected on several occasions, e.g. when the runner knocked down every huddle. In any case, it was a lot of fun playing these games. And it clearly brought out my more competitive side.
