The World

As the Winter Olympics kick off in Vancouver, we check in with three bloggers who’ve been following the lead-up to the games for months.

Leilani Gibson is a ski instructor and yoga teacher in Oregon. She writes about women’s skiiing and skateboarding in her Ski-like-a-girl blog.

Brandon Worley is the Hockey editor for the Sports Blogs Nation and he talks to us about Team USA’s chances of winning gol.

And Aaron Harris’s Axes loops and Spins blog about figure skating just won him an all expense paid trip to Vancouver to blog about the Olympics.
