RIO 2016 - Olympic Records Discussion

ARE YOU WATCHING THE OLYMPICS?!

More than 50 World Records have been broken so far and there are still 7 days left!

What records will be broken this year?

Michael Phelps has already 27 medals and Usain Bolt still has to run the 100mts

 Have a look at the times now. Swimming races are usually defined by just some tenths or hundredths of a second. That's why they are so fun to watch. I have many swimming friends in my college Delta State University, MS and they tell me how hard it is to improve your time just a second

Ok. 

Dear Katie Ledecky:

Congrats for your win yesterday in the 800m final in Rio. Were you even nervous? You are already a five-time Olympic gold medalist, 9 time World Champion, and current World-record holder in the women's 400, 800, and 1500m freestyle. Don't you think it is time to swim against the man? 

Please tell me where are you from. I won't tell anybody. 

I know... from US... Superman also is "from US"

PD: Please tell me what do you have for breakfast

This is happening not only in swimming. Thanks to the Olympics we can see how athletes are running and swimming faster, jumping higher and getting stronger every year.

Every year, records in all sports are getting broken. There is a undeniable progression every year. A few years ago I don't think people thought that a man could run 100m under 9.6 seconds (Usain Bolt run in 9.58) or that a single man could win 27 medals (Phelps - 27 - today... 08/13/2016)

If we keep going like this, how many records will be broken in the next 5 or 10 years?

Where is the human limit?

What record are YOU more excited about to see being broken?

Who are YOU most excited about this Olympics?

I am personally super excited to see Rafa Nadal winning the GOLD medal in singles (he won the gold in doubles yesterday)
