Olympics X Robotics

Hi everyone,

As you know, we are approaching the Olympics this year. Many sport lovers are going to focus their attentions to Rio de Janeiro - Brazil for a few weeks.
I´ve decided to open this discussion, because not only the Olympics are going to take place in my country, but also because I think we always can learn from different things.
Dean Kamen always say that we are playing the sport of the mind, or the superbowl of the smart.

Let´s start it

What do you think a robotics team can learn from an athlete/team that competes on high-level competitions such as the Olympics?

You can discuss in terms of teamwork, performance, commitment, training, leadership, strategy, management, pressure, and any other related topic you want to.
In addition, if you have any experience (good or not) applying any of this knowledge coming from sports, it will be a pleasure to hear from you.

hope you like the thread
