What we like

  • Whitney’s emotionally charged performance moves us to a new level of motivation and aspiration

Mind experience

  • We have visited Olympia in Greece where the first Olympic Games began in classical times.  It was there that we actually ran in the stadium (pictured) in the style of the Greeks, beginning the sprint standing with the arms forward.  The games were held in honour of Zeus, every four years, held at Olympia and only free born Greek men were allowed to participate in the events.  So we certainly have come a long way with the participation of nations, genders and hosted at different locations

To think about

  • Give me one moment in time
    When I’m more than I thought I could be
  • You’re a winner for a lifetime
    If you seize that one moment in time, make it shine
