Women Sparkle in Short Program

Watching women’s figure skating has been a favorite past time for me since I can remember. It is a sport of beauty and elegance. Having tried my hand at skating more than once, I will admit I am terrible. No, really. I am. I find standing to be as challenging as a triple axel. Seriously. So I am very glad I am blessed with skills that allow me to be a part of figure skating in other ways. Watching the women’s short program, however, I am reminded once again how incredibly talented some are in this amazing sport. Read More…

Well, I don’t have to tell you how amazing it was to watch Evan Lysacek skate the program of a lifetime when he won the Olympic Gold medal this week. Even more enjoyable to watch was the interview the next morning with Bob Costas of NBC when, in the face of criticism by Russia’s Evgeni Plevchenko, Evan took more than the high road.

I’m not sure if you caught the pairs skating but what a beautiful endeavor by China’s Shen & Zhao! After 18 years together, the couple took the gold. Midway through their free skate, you could read the look of elation on their faces. Watching Shen’s reaction when the announcer stated the couple was in first place was emotional and exciting. I couldn’t help but smile and tear up as I watched them revel in their victory. So, a heartfelt congratulations to them both for two outstanding Olympic performances! Read More…

I don’t know about you but the next two weeks for me, and most of the world, will involve way more television than usual. For two weeks we will glue ourselves to the tv, sometimes late into the night cheering for our favorite winter Olympic sport. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that if you are reading this, you are going to be catching every moment of Olympic figure skating possible. For some, this means putting the DVR into overdrive so you don’t miss the perfect triple axel or that amazing combination spin everyone at practice will be talking about tomorrow! I know I don’t want to miss a single moment.
