People With Healthy Lifestyles

Day One. (April 15)
Many people in life live a healthy, and prosperous lifestyle but the people that I consider to be the healthiest are Olympic athletes. When I see them on the television preforming in their events all i can think about is how hard they must have trained to get where they are today. Being an athlete doesn't come easy and there is no doubt that they have to live a healthy lifestyle and workout constantly to keep in shape. Many people don't go to just one Olympics but some go to many, and its amazing to think about how hard they train every year to stay at the top. For example Misty May Treanor and her partner Kerri Walsh Jennings competed in three Olympics together and were gold medalist every time. For over twelve years they trained together and played hard so that they could keep winning in beach volleyball. The dedication that they had for their passion is inspirational. In an interview with Misty she said, "I didn't think I'd be going for another Olympics." And yet, the next year she was out against hard opponents to do what she loved. People don't get to the Olympics by staying at home and watching TV, instead they go and train and maintain the lifestyle that they need to achieve. In my opinion I think that Olympic Athletes have a very healthy lifestyle, on and off of the sport.
