The last night on trips/experiences of this type are always fun and unpredictable. First off, we watched the Sunday night athletics session. In perhaps the greatest day of British sport, many Britons claimed gold. Andy Murray got redemption for losing Wimbledon by beating Roger Federer for the gold at Wimbledon. The evening was capped off with the final of the 100 meter dash. Usain Bolt became the first man to defend his 100 meter Olympic gold medal. Being the fastest man alive is one of the most prestigious and fascinating titles in all of humanity. The Americans looked good in those red Nike hyper elite track uniforms. Justin Gatlin got the bronze and the US range fourth and fifth fastest times as well. Once coverage ended, it was time to pack and hang out for one last night in the room with everyone.

With an ecclectic group like we had, our conversations were never dull. Last night proved no different. Sean gave us a look into his singing talents with renditions of a an older song I had never heard before and Adele's hit 'Rolling in the deep'.

We had some group confirmations as well. Everyone had to give one word to describe the others. I did appreciate the opportunity to tell others how they have impacted me throughout this trip. Sometimes you never get this opportunity.

But unfortunately some good things have to come to an end. This trip validates that saying.
