More reason to love curling -- It's a family sport!
Quite literally, in the case of Canadian curler Kristie Moore who is 5 1/2 months pregnant. (There's a joke waiting to be made about how she needs to check into the products offered by the USA Curling sponsors, but I'm going to take the high road and not go there :-)
Can you imagine the story she'll have to tell her little one? "You were at the Olympics with Mama when we won the gold."
How many times can you say that has happened?
OK, so the article gives you the answer to that question... This is only the second known time an athlete has competed in the Olympics while in the family way. In 1920 Swedish figure skater Magda Julin won gold while three months pregnant.
So, best of luck ot Kristie, her teammates and her little curler-in-training. Maybe we'll be watching him or her curling in the 2030 Winter Olympic Games.
