Olympics

The Olympics. It is a magnificent world wide sport that can be held anywhere around the world, and this year the 2012 Olympics will be held in London the capital of England. I really can't wait for the Olympics to start because I want to see the ceremony and it is gonna be huge.

In the past Olympics, women were not allowed to compete in the Olympics. The reason why they could not compete was because men didn't think women were as capable as them. Until a woman had proved them worthy enough to contest in the Olympics.

There are a lot of competitive athletes competing this year, and my favourite is Mahe Drysdale. Because he is a NZL athlete who is participating in the rowing event. In the previous Olympics Mahe Drysdale had won a bronze medal. But I think he has trained very hard and is going to come first.  Also I like the world's fastest man Usain Bolt because he has inspired me to become a faster and fitter athlete and to make it to our Auckland champs for running.

I really hope this year NZL will bring back a lot of gold medals in every sport. When I grow up I want to be like the athletes that I look up to.
