All ready for the 2012 Olympics.

July of next year is the start of the 2012 Summer Olympics, and I could not be more excited. I do love the olympics, but more so, I love the sport of Swimming. And thanks to amazing swims and the success of Michael Phelps, swimming becomes front page headlines during the Olympics.

In honor of the olympics, here is my favorite moment from the 2008 Games. It is the 4 x 100 freestyle relay when Michael Phelps won his 8th gold medal. But the real hero of that day is Jason Lezak. As the last swimmer, he came back from behind and won at the very last second. The video gives me chills every time.

Video Notes: The video shows the last leg of the relay and Jason Lezak is in lane 4. The quality may not be the best, but just wait for his finish. I promise it will be worth it.
