This guy from Tunisia won the 1500m men's race. That was pretty cool. He beat out Grant Hackett from Oz. I wonder where he practices in Tunisia.
You can see the Aussies cheering on their Grant Hackett and Hackett with his medal.
Then there is the story of Ms. Dara Torres. You guys should look it up. This is her 5th Olympics and she has Nine Medals coming into these Games and she won some here as well. She first competed in LA and then Seoul and then Barcelona and then Sydney. She skipped Atlanta and Athens...the two A Olympics. Wikipedia entry for here is linked.
In these first two pictures she had just received a medal for her race and was whisked away to get out of the warmup suit and out on the blocks for the Women's relay. She then raced in the Relay and toook a medal there as well. Not bad for an old lady....opps....she is younger than me....so she must be a young lady. Boy am I old!!!!!!!!!!!!
