An athlete looks like...

Hello,

Today I want to spend this blog on what it takes to be an athlete...

Your size, your age and your weight should never have an impact on how or what you can do. Peope who have the will can achieve what they want. Some of the athletes that walked into the Canadian Olympic House could be confused for your average Joe. And that's what athletes really are. It is a challenge for most to imagine that an athlete can do very well and my short or even be a small person. Well yes and chances are small athletes have qualities that the sport demands. Sure taller athletes dominate in some sports but come on most olympic sport do not require you to be 6 feet in order to challenge with the best.

People put to much emphasis on the size of an individual... It is much more interesting to have good hand-eye coordination, accuracy, agility, speed etc. This will assure that the athlete can aim high and meet their goals.

An athlete looks like me and you, obviously with a lot more training and a lot more will.

Cheers,
