This time 4 years ago, I was watching the Sochi, Russia, Winter Olympics in Canada. This year I’m watching the Pyeongchang, Korea, Winter Olympics in the United Kingdom.
Great Britain are not as fortunate in the Winter Olympics for medals as they are blessed in the Summer Olympics.
In Sochi 2014, Great Britain won 4 medals in total. One gold, one silver and 2 bronze.
Liz Yarnold – Gold – Skeleton
Men’s Team – Silver – Curling
Woman’s Team – Bronze Curling
Jenny Jones – Bronze – Snowboarding
I read in the media at the beginning of the Olympics, that Great Britain’s goal was to win 5 medals. I’m glad to report as of today, only day 8 of the Winter Olympics we have won 4 medals. One gold and 3 bronze.
Liz Yarnold – Gold – Skeleton
Laura Deas – Bronze – Skeleton
Don Parsons – Bronze – Skeleton
Izzy Atkin – Bronze – Skis Slopestyle
Congrats to Liz Yarnold for achieving her second consecutive gold medal in the skeleton. Hopefully Team GB will exceed their goal of 5 medals in this years Winter Olympics.
