I Beat an Olympian at The Best Of Us Challenge

Monday, October 19th, 2009

As you know, kids arent as active as they used to be. In a big effort to encourage youth to find interest in sports again, the IOC is launching this challenge to offer a once in a lifetime opportunity for kids to compete against some of the most iconic athletic figures of this generation. And yes, the videos are as hilarious and quirky as they sound.

Whats a better way to empower youth by way of athletic participation than asking them to compete against the very best?Below are a few links more links of Rafael Nadal, Lindsey Jacobellis and Shawn Johnson participating in the aforementioned challenges. Think you can do better? Bring it on, and show us.

Compete in the Best of Us Challenge to compete against Olympic Athletes like Michael Phelps! I’m winning in the hoola hoop challenge, beating techie Veronica Belmont and Lindsay Jacobellis. Ha! Submit a video, unless you’re scared (insert dark and sinister laugh here) boo!

    I think your work would be helpful with some PR promo work for some fashion houses in nyc. I am going to send your sites to a contact of mine to check your work out and if they are interested they can contact you. I am not in that profession but I have many close friends that are big names in fashion. You just might do well with it. I am sure they have heard of you already but I will throw your name out there again( no pun intended please)

    My kids are involved with sports and I’m just trying to get them to drink water and eat their veggies. That’s the real challenge- spinach.

    LOL you are great!

    Хороший пост. Чувствуется ведёте блог с душой, хотя сейчас повально все увлекаются заведением блога, в твитере акка..но по делу, грамотно и интересно мало у кого получается писать, а главное постоянно. Так же всех наших дорогих и горячо любимых дам с 8 марта!!!

    Понравился Ваш сайт! В рунете вообще мало чего дельного в блогах пишут. Всё стараются друг у друга скопировать посты. Года 2 назад было интересно ходить по разным блогам-видно было сразу-люди старались писать посты..а щас уже только для яндекса и стараются. Вообщем желаю продолжать Вам в Том же духе.
    С уважением Ваш читатель.
