As most people around the world temporarily shift their focus from football and soccer to different sports such as athletics, gymnastics, basketball, archery, swimming, track and field events and many other sports because of the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics, athletes representing their countries are preparing themselves for their moment in the Olympics.

Many of them, during their physical and mental preparations, train with sports drinks. There are athletes who train with sugar-water sport drinks, focusing on hydration, but there are those who train with PureSport Workout and Recovery sports drink with protein which helps athletes by providing real nutrition and fuel, nutritionally enhancing the performance of the athletes during and after strenuous activities.

Swimmer/athlete Michael Phelps, a 23 time world record holder, takes PureSport Workout and Recovery sports drink with protein. In fact, there is a Team PureSport. This is a team of swimmers and Olympic champions who have been training with PureSport Workout and Recovery sports drink with protein for more than a year. Team members, aside from Michael Phelps (eight-time Olympic medalist), include Ian Crocker (four-time Olympic medalist), Brendan Hansen (three-time Olympic medalist) and Aaron Peirsol (four-time Olympic medalist). Certain NCAA swim programs from different universities currently train with PureSport Workout and Recovery nutritional performance drinks.

I was just teasing. But, seriously, there is such a thing. In their site, they are looking for participants to this contest to see who will achieve Victory Hair. Maybe if I was still single and available I would have used this look and some witty, funny but cool conversation to go with it. But I don’t really need to do that because all one really needs to do is click the widget below and he or she can play the game by creating an avatar from a selection of faces and hairstyles plus a choice of his or her own username.
