Monster Michael Phelps made new legend

The last race, the men's 400m medley relay took place and American team won.

An American swimmer Michael Phelps achieved getting 8 gold medals in the Beijing Olympics. What an incredible deed!

Many athletes are expected to win gold medals, but achieving that is not easy. Some of them missed it. But Phelps carried out as expected. 8 gold medals! Besides, 7 of 8 are the world records!

I understood he was an outstanding swimmer. But he participated in races almost every day. How strong physical strength he has. And it's usually very hard to keep motivation. Hmm... Indeed, he is a monster.
