You can't escape the fact that the Olympic Games are just around the corner now. Every time that I turn on the TV, Radio or read a Newspaper there is a countdown clock reminding me of just how many days I have before the Opening Ceremony commences.
This will actually be my sixth time that I will have had the opportunity to march at an Olympic Opening Ceremony. I have been to every one except the 1996 Opening since the Seoul Games in '88. Interestingly '96 was the year I won the Olympics! Despite superstition I will be attending again this year. If anyone can put on a decent fireworks display it should be the Chinese I feel.
Not all of the team will be marching. Because the return time is due to be 1am then obviously anyone competing on day 1 is advised not to go. Many athletes on day 2 and 3 are out also.
Ok off to training!!!!
