Making the impossible possible

The Olympic spirit is contagious. It makes you emotionally attached to people you have never met or even heard of before.

I officially became emotionally attached to the Winter Olympics when I watched the women’s ski jump final. A competition of 30 women from 12 nations who all dreamt of being the first female ski jump Olympic champion.

I don’t follow winter sports closely, like many people I like to jump on the Olympic bandwagon every four years, which is ironic because in my own sport I try to promote the fact that there are major championships every year! Irony aside, as an armchair fan of the Winter Olympics I found a new favourite event, the women’s ski jump.
