The chaos of the Games.
The Olympic Games…they
are an amazing 17 days of pure, crazy chaos.
And covering the Olympics is a fantastic blend of challenge, excitement,
anxiousness, drama, adrenaline and awe-inspiring moments with a little
exhaustion mixed in.
I feel so blessed every time
I get to be a part of the action, and I try to carry that sentiment with me
every day of work and competition. It is
not as easy as it was back in 1996, 2000 or 2002. Back then, it was just little ole me; I had
no one else to worry about. Now, it’s more
of a family affair…my own little European vacation minus the Griswold’s.
As a reporter, analyst
and host, I realize I am not there to cheer for Team USA. But as an American
and Olympic champion, I will be cheering my head off for all of my peers and
friends. The 2012 Games will be my ninth Olympic Games as either a spectator,
competitor, or reporter. Each Games is
unique and equally amazing. Just like
parenthood, it is a chaos that I love, appreciate and relish!
We’re less than 43 days
now…Bring on Opening Ceremonies!
