Sacrifice

A comment by one athlete at the Commonwealth Games shocked our eldest son. Having just won the gold medal for long jump, the athlete commented that she had gone without chocolate for ten years for this moment. That was enough for my son - that sort of sacrifice was just too much - even for a gold medal!
