2010 Olympics

The Olympic Creed
"The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well"


Athlete's Oath
"In the name of all the competitors, I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules which govern them, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams."


2010 Olympic Motto
With Glowing Hearts

Found within the Canadian national anthem, "With Glowing Hearts" represents what it takes to be an Olympic or Paralympic Athlete

I love what the Olympics are all about and I think our family should come up with a Creed, Oath? and (annual?)Motto....
Any suggestions?


I also love this Jerry Seinfeld clip, a much lighter take on the Olympics......
