Okay, one last set of Olympic photos. They’re just so damn good. Like any good parent, really love this first one:

And this one because watching David Rudisha win the 800m was amazing (and he’s got a great backstory, too). Kim said it was like watching Secretariat in the Belmont:

If you like sports, amazing photos, or human drama you owe it to yourself to check out the whole set.
OK, Rudisha was awesome, but no … not Secretariat at Belmont. That was possibly the best performance in sports history.
