Condors --

It is beyond reason that I even have the ability to express myself legibly and coherently, as I have done more cartwheels in the past 30 minutes than in a lifetime. I think my neighbors are worried about all the yelling coming from my house.

Emily swam into a 2:17.85 this morning, BARELY edging out Olympian Evgeniia Chikunova to take the Gold Medal in the 200M Breaststroke. The difference between Gold and Silver was a mere .03 seconds, with Emily closing the race with an incredible :36.00 split for the win.

We are so proud of you, Emily! Thank you for representing us and Team USA with such passion and ferocity.

Gold Medal. World Champion. INCREDIBLE!

GO CONDORS! On the World stage, no less!
