High Expectations

A couple of posts ago I wrote about Galen Rupp, the tough and fast kid from Oregon and his take on the pressure of high-level competition.

Well, in case you missed it, he finished second in the 10K at the Olympic Trials and qualified for the Olympics. He said, "high expectations mean you have a chance to do something special."

He's done it. He's met the expectations and at 21, he's on to the Olympic Games! Incredible story.

Sports Illustrated wrote about it. Check it out here.
