Happy Olympics Week...sorta.

Don't know if everyone has been following the Games this week, but all we can say is WOW. This has got to be one of the most exciting summer games in a long while! China pulled out all the stops to make this event one of the most spectacular Olympics in history. If you missed out on the ceremony and don't have a Tivo....never fear, NBC has you covered:

Something else that we're crazy about around here is the medal race that Michael Phelps is currently on. Phelps has got to be one of the most dominant swimmers of all time. He's already earned 3 Golds, which puts his career gold medal count at 9....tying greats such as Mark Spitz(swimming), Carl Lewis(track), Larysa Latynina(gymnastics) and Paavo Nurmi(running) for the most in Olympic history. Don't expect the tie to the last though...Phelps is on a runaway train to shatter all kinds of speed records and of course a record number of golds.

If you missed the dramatic gold medal performance from the 4x100 relay, check it out here where Phelps, along with his teammates Jones, Weber-Gale, and Lezak totally come from behind to blow away the smack-talking French team into the annals of history as one of the most incredible and amazing relay races of all time!

In other news this week, the better half of the dynamic duo affectionately known to all as Team Marv.n.Jo has been added to the disabled list for the time being. During a routine training ride leading up to this Saturday's race in Pleasanton, Josephine and her race horse Ruby suffered a minor fall.

Both race horse and rider are in good condition, albeit with a few minor scrapes and bruises. While both Ruby and Josephine are healing up nicely, their participation in the Tri for Fun this Saturday in Pleasanton is listed as "questionable", but they will be monitored day-to-day leading up to the race. Stay tuned...
