We aren't really big swimming fans, but Mari and I both really got into the Freestyle Relay race tonight, it was the epitome of what makes the Olympics great. Not even knowing much about the sport and being that drawn into it. The French were heavily favored and had even told the press they would "destroy the Americans". And they were winning until Jason Lezak, the oldest mens swimmer, swam the race of his life and overcame what should have been an impossible French lead to win by the length of his fingertips.
