@kareng That's right, and I heard that most athlete when they reach 30 they are told to retire or being replaced. I don't know how true.

I believe in you, because you have been in a good relationship with Irish gentlemen. I watched her fight against Brasil, I thought she will lose because she was cornered in the ring many times. But she scored more since she was hitting the correct parts of the body.

I have been thinking about taking it up as a form of exercise. It seems to be growing in popularity.

Great achievement You also won Gold in Men's rowing! I think a smaller country winning a medal makes for even more national pride than those countries who are expected to win.
