I just wanted to take a moment and convey some big time congratulations to Anna Tunnicliffe, a 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist. Anna competed in the Women’s Laser Radial sailing event in Beijing over the past week. After ten races, she proved to be the most dominant woman out there, beating the silver medalist by five points.
So here’s a big congratulations, Anna! What a way to represent the United States of America! Congratulations!

Abi and I met Anna in 7th grade when she moved to Perrysburg. We all became good friends throughout high school while on the Perrysburg Track and Field team. Abi kept in touch with Anna throughout the years and was a bridesmaid in Anna’s wedding this past May.
