The Olympic Dream that Could Be

Today of all days, Olympics has been on my radar and it is my aim to write something Olympic theme almost daily in this period.
When I was younger, about 7 or 8 years old, I was a little swimmer. I learned how to swim. I went to swim meets. My family paid for those private lessons. Later on when I got older, I was a runner, a cross-country one. Mind you, at that time, by then, I was around 13 years old. I trained for about 6 years. I was competitive, but was not as good as in the swimming pool. I never thought of one other thing that I could had tried for: triathlon. I have a fear for cycling for years. I could not get over with the two wheels. I am still on my training wheels as an adult. Certainly I do have the endurance. For my age, I could pick triathlon if I like, but I do have to learn how to cycle. Unless I have a good cycle like Tour de France's champion's ones or triathlon's suit, I will stick to the swimming pool and the running.
Note: Currently I am into yoga and pilates.
