Olympic Courtesy: It’s The Small Things that Count

Twitter is where it’s at in London…if you want the behind the scenes point of view.

What can you learn? Olympic sprinters, especially the giants, are pretty kind and courteous.

When Nathan Adrian won gold in the 100 meter freestyle final, he tweeted a “spoiler alert” for friends and fans back home waiting…and waiting…to watch NBC’s primetime coverage:

Olympic roomies, the guys (or gals) who choose to bunk-up (often because they’ll be more relaxed and stress-free around that  swimming-friend) are kind to each other. And it’s not just about words, it’s actions, the tiny gestures that count. Adrian roomie Matt Grevers, understanding how wonderful it is to win gold (as he won the 100 backstroke final), also understands it’s important to show your appreciation, so your roomie will feel special.  See his gesture below:

So…be nice to each other, and remember it’s the small things that count.
