Yesterday I had the day off! Our staff is taking one day off each week just to get a break and to be able to see some of the other events.
I went to the quarter finals of the short track speed skating 1500 meter event where 2 Americans qualified to move on to the semifinals- JR Celski and Eddie Valdez. Celski ended up finishing 4th in the final just missing a medal.
Then we went to a hockey game! The U.S. played Switzerland in women’s hockey and we won 9-0!
And I finally got to see Jennifer Chee who is the massage therapist for U.S. Women’s Hockey and works in my office in Colorado Springs!
Then we buzzed over to watch our skaters get ready to go on the Today Show (there’s a Today Show set outside the Bolshoy men’s hockey arena).
The medal ceremony is tonight in the Olympic plaza!
