Monday August 18, 2008
Jane Lindholm

The athletes competing in the Olympic Games arrived in Beijing with years of training behind them, and it all comes down to their performance in this one unique events in sports. For most of us watching, we can only imagine the determination, focus and emotions of the athletes in competition. But for several Vermonters, Olympic-level competition isn't just a day-dream or a vicarious experience. VPR's Jane Lindholm talks with Summer Olympians Judy Geer and Serena Eddy Moulton, who both competed in rowing in the 1980s about what it's like to train for and compete in the Olympics, and how athletics have shaped their lives since.
