Setting a Standard - Episode 7

from Spaghetti Hosted by Abhay Raghavan

The Spaghetti Podcast is back! We will be recapping the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games! The Olympics never fail to leave me stunned. I revel at the fact that I can witness athletes move in extraordinary ways. But there is a lot that we don't see or hear about. Olympic athletes dedicate nearly their entire lives to the day they will perform at the Olympic Games. What is it about them that allows them to compete at the Olympic level - a level that no other human can compete at? In Episode 7, we will be taking a look at the U.S. National Gymnastics team, and explore the story of Sunisa Lee. We will also be observing the relationship Lee had with fellow teammate Simone Biles, and how they comforted each other prior to the 2020 Games held this past summer. Just like we can set standards with spaghetti, Olympic athletes set standards for themselves by competing in different environments and qualifiers ahead of the actual games.
