My favorite Olympic memory

English: Kōhei Uchimura is a Japanese artistic...
 Kōhei Uchimura is a Japanese artistic gymnast.  (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
The Olympic scene which I liked the most was when Uchimura won in the individual combined gymnastics.
Uchimura started gymnastics at the age of three and he has won many competitions since then. His parents run a gymnastic school and he has been practicing gymnastics there.

Now he has won the world gymnastic championship three times in a row. In the Beijing Olympics Uchimura couldn't get a gold medal and he ended in silver. His dream was to to get a gold medal in the Olympics. This year, in the London Olympics, he finished his performance with a perfect landing and he was able to win a gold medal. I'm glad that he has won a gold medal.

    hey Takuro,

    Nice posting - I think Uchimura did really well in winning the gold medal at Lonadon 2012. However, I think he did even better in the "Olympic Spirit" when the Japanese men overtook the British in the team event for solver/bronze (his dismount again!). He was very humble and almost apologetic about ousting the GB Team on a technicality, and said so very well.
