Somehow, with only eight spots to fill, snowboarding brother and sister, Arielle and Taylor Gold both made this years’ Olympic halfpipe team. That’s not one, but two Golds. Strangely enough, they are the first athletes with the name Gold (along with Gracie…

While biathlete Tim Burke is a two-time Olympian, Tim Burke’s girlfriend Andrea Henkel is also an Olympic biathlete. Both athletes will be competing at Sochi this winter, and both are after the gold.

And for both, it is their first time competing in the Olympics, something Jamie Greubel believes is very important. One very special part of this whole experience is that I am able to share this accomplishment with…

Anyway, not sure how else that I could explain the fact that these two remained abstinent until marriage (to satisfy their Mormon faith), and Jake Welch took the long game. Impressive patience.
