The 4x100 freestyle relay team took gold, after being 8 100's of a second behind late in the race and thwarting off the French world record holders for a phenomenal photo finish. This keeps Michael Phelps dream of 8 gold medals in Beijing alive. He has two gold so far in his amazing quest.
This race seriously gave me goosebumps. In the last leg, the US swimmer Jason Lezak was a half a body length behind the French anchor man. Somehow he did it. Down but not out, he found enough strength to overtake the boasting cocky Frenchman, who predicted a blowout win, to steal the gold medal.
VIVA LA USA!!!!
