We were lucky enough to get tickets to the 100m Mens Finals and other athletic events on Saturday night. We were there to see the Olympic area at 5 and we were in our seats at 7pm--19 rows back from the track!!! We had an amazing view for the whole night which involved womens javelin and shotput, mens longjump, womens 400 and 800 and of course, the mens 100m final. And as you know, we saw the fastest man in the world set the record and win the gold! It was an unforgettable night--we hope you saw it too :)

We wore these shirts (courtesey of the Zaagmans) so that our picture could be hung up in Yesterdog--the best hotdog place ever in GR, MI

Great pictures Emily. I can't believe you were there for the 100m. That man is an amazing runner.
Enjoy the rest of the games.
