Watching the Olympics

I always enjoy watching distance races, as I once was a runner myself, so these races were the highlights of the Olympics for me. It was particularly enjoyable to see the American win a silver in the marathon, and the Morrocan win the 1500 and 5000 meter races. Of course it was too bad that a crazy man attacked the Brazilian runner, perhaps even causing him to lose the gold or silver. Overall, NBC did a pretty good job this time covering the Olympics, with less of the fluffy bios, more concentration on the actual contests.
