For me, the Olympics really start on Friday afternoon!
The first weekend of action will feature the men's and women's 10,000m races, as well as the women's marathon. It should be really exciting, as there will be some Americans in the mix in the M-10K and the marathon. And then of course the BIGGEST event of the weekend will be Bolt vs. the world in the men's 100 meters on Sunday.

Which events are you most excited to watch?!?! As you can tell from my "narrowed down" list - I've only narrowed it down to about 25 events :-)
I LOVE THE OLYMPICS!!!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Just saw Missy Franklin win gold. Wow, what a kiddo she is.
DeleteI am assuming these are the "live" times? Or do I really have to wake up at 4am to watch the marathon. Ahhh crap I better get dvr or tivo or whatever they call it.
ReplyDeleteThose are the "live" times - but who knows when NBC is actually going to broadcast everything on TV. I imagine most things will be tape delayed.
DeleteYou can watch everything live on the NBC website.
This for the running summary. But do not forget the swimming, beach volleyball, indoor volleyball, gymnastics, ... Oh my this is all so good!
ReplyDeleteThe only problem is staying awake past 8:30pm, when everything is on TV! :-)
