Rio 2016: Even Finals Day 2 and 3

I wrote a nice post about the last two days of finals, but somehow it disappeared into thin air. So let's try again, I needed to rewatch the finals anyway. Aliya, Oleg and Aleksandrov behind the beam kept distracting me from what was happening on the beam.

Rio 2016: A Bittersweet All Around

I feel like I'm both emotionally and physically exhausted after so many days of gymnastics. But what a bittersweet AA final. I got my wish and Aliya medaled, which I'm incredibly happy about. But I'm also sad that she couldn't perform to her best and had a lackluster day at the Olympics, especially after her great performances in the team final. I guess she gave her best for the team, again. I still think that she earned that medal, she gave the others every opportunity to take advantage of her mistakes, but nobody could. It really wasn't the best day for anyone except Aly and Simone, who both delivered great performances.
