Judie and Justin took Harmoni and Haraboji to see the men's 5,000 meter speed skating today at the Richmond Oval. It was the first Olympic event for any of them...and hey, that little seven year old pipsqueak of a son of mine got to go instead of me!
Lee Seung-Hoon from South Korea captured the silver medal, to the delight of my inlaws, who cheered him on to an unexpected second place finish.
The gold went to Sven Kramer of the Netherlands. Hmmm, apparently getting gold wasn't good enough for his coach, who felt a need to roger the poor boy in public...maybe since he didn't break a record or something. Those Dutch take their speed skating seriously! Don't bend, Sven!!!
