Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Really liked this article about Norway's success in the winter olympics. Obviously we're one of the few countries in the world taking the winter olympics seriously, but it's still really impressive how we're this dominant year after year. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/olympics/2022/02/15/norway-biathlon-medals-lead/ Quote Then it came time to ask again about just how a small country reigns so, how it outpaces countries with much larger contingents and countries with much similar climates. There’s the Norwegian thing about not keeping score of the games of small children, and the thing about a system that emphasizes the overall health of the human athlete, and the thing about not paying medal winners because it might beget suboptimal motives, and the thing about not running around the world crowing. I hated this as a kid, but I think there's something to it. "It's not about winning, it's about participating" is a huge thing in Norway, especially when it comes to kids.
