Preparation
 
There must be enormous pressure to prepare for the Olympics
To have a dream you follow for many years always believing in yourself and never letting go of that belief
Preparing for many years at a sport that you are good at
Spending endless hours, getting good enough to compete in the Olympics someday
Upon being accepted into the Olympics must be tremendous pressure to compete for the winning title for your country
But probably it is a feeling you never forget being good enough to compete in the Olympics
Endless gruelling hours and months spent in preparation for the day
Upon the competition day your coach by your side
Taking a deep breath when your time has come to compete
The hushed sounds of the crowd as you do your sport you have chosen
Then watching your competitors get up and do their sport in your competition
Tremendous pressure and anticipation builds in the competition
The final ceremony is held as the names are called and the medals are awarded
Family and friends and coach give flowers to the medal winner
It must be an overwhelming feeling when you win a medal knowing that your hard work over the years in sports has paid off and that you have won representing your country
After the Olympics it must be an overwhelming feeling for your family and friends to have a winning ceremony for you
