The London Olympics 2012 has now officially ended (with the exception of the Paralympics that is; roll on August 29th)
As a former sceptic, I am so surprised by how involved I became with this years games. Okay not by actually participating but by watching and I'm not usually a sport watcher.

Up until to a couple of weeks ago I was like, do I really care about this big spectacle? Erm hells no. It's just a big hype. But as soon as I saw the opening ceremony I was hooked, it was like a big light shone through me and all of a sudden I felt a big sense of British pride.

It really has been an amazing summer of sports; the athletes really have inspired a nation and I'm sure up and down the country there are young people all around dreaming of being the next set of team GB'rs in Rio 2016. Even I have bitten the sporting bug, oh how I wish I had taken my head teachers advice in secondary school and taken more of an interest in P.E, who knows what could have happened and where I would be today. But it's not too late, who knows what could happen in 4 years.
