Dara just one the national title in the 100M Freestyle in 54.4 at the ripe old age of 40. Simply Incredible. :applaud: :woot:
If that's not inspiring I don't know what is.

There was a 50+ cyclist from France in the road race today.
Another hundredth of a second separation between gold and silver.
Speedo will be needing a new face. I could look at Ms. Torres for a while.
Grant Hackett silver in 1500! (does he have his own thread?) followed by Ryan Cochrane bronze; Tunisia (name I can't remember) takes gold. Tight race.

Dara's stock really went up, not only on her chances of getting gold, but also as a person. Pretty cool how she asked the judge to wait for Therese.
Very good, but that's what a mature mind does--understands the occasion. Win or lose the Swedish girl got to race and can remember that she left it in the pool...not in the locker room b/c of a busted zipper!
Of course Dara may have just wanted a full race so she could undoubtedly beat them.
Hey, I'm not even a yank and I'm rooting for Dara tonight!

That's what I thought too. She understood what that swim would mean to the Swedish swimmer. Older folks aren't as afraid of authority...it couldn't hurt to ask.

P.S. Former UGA star KL Joyce made it into the finals!!!
awesome. That was a fast semi she was in, I was hoping she'd get through.
